The safest procedure is to contact the attorney handling the estate, if there is none then contact the office of the clerk of the probate court for instructions on the matter. The party who received permission to open the safe deposit box should not dispose of (sell, spend, liquidate, pass to other family members, etc.) any of the contents until the problem has been resolved.
