If the period during which creditors can make a claim has passed, generally, the heirs can submit a motion to the court to compel the appointed executor to make distribution. The executor has a legal obligation to perform all their duties in a timely manner. If the executor isn't doing that then complain to the court or to the attorney who is handling the estate.

What if executor refuses to pay siblings on legal will drafted by an attorney very clear as to money being paid exactly as per will. Executor has history of abusing siblings Refuses to obey.?

If the executor is not fulfilling their duties as outlined in the will and is refusing to distribute the assets as specified, the siblings have the legal right to challenge the executor's actions in court. They can petition the court to compel the executor to follow the terms of the will and may also consider seeking legal advice to understand their options and rights in this situation.

Who become a new executor if the original executor of a will dies and the will was already in probate?

If the will names an alternate executor in the event the first named executor dies or refuses to serve, then that person should become the new executor. If the will does not name an alternate executor, or if the alternat has died or refuses to serve, then generally one of the residuary legatees named in the will should be appointed. In some states this person is not known as an executor but rather an administrator c.t.a. This is an abbreviation for the Latin "cum testamento annexo", meaning, "with the will amended." Keep in mind that probate laws differ from state to state. This is a general answer and might not apply in every state.

Can the executor of a will refuse the responsibility and choice someone else as executor if the will named a second person if the first declined?

Generally, the first named executor cannot choose his/her substitute if the will names an alternate executor. We follow the decedent's wishes, not the executor's. The one exception could be if the will itself gives the executor the power to name a successor, which is pretty rare. Further, if the alternate executor has died or also refuses to act as the executor, the first named executor still has no power to choose a successor. Normally, in that situation, the person to handle the estate is chosen from among the residuary legatees, since they have the greatest interest in seeing the estate administered.


Is the executor of an estate always required to file an accounting of the distribution of the assets of an estate?

Yes. The final account must be filed and allowed by the court in order to close the estate. An executor who refuses to file a final account should be reported to the court. The judge can compel the executor to file the final account so the court, and the heirs, can review the disposition of the estate by comparing it to the inventory and the distribution to heirs.Yes.

What if an executor refuses to pay bills for the deceased?

The executor cannot refuse to pay properly documented debts. They do not have to pay them personally, the money comes from the estate. If there isn't any money, they show the court the assets and distribution and the estate is closed. And if they insist on not paying, the court can revoke their status as executor and assign it to someone else.
