The Administrator must be appointed by the court and then has the authority to settle the estate. By law, the Administrator has the right and obligation and authority to make 'major decisions'. In a large family it is important for the family to respect the authority of the Administrator. It is important for all the family members to work together to resolve disagreements. You will need to make fair minded decisions on how to distribute the property and everyone's ideas should be considered. However, the Administrator has the right to make the final decisions.
