The executor should come forward immediately, secure the property if necessary, file the Will for allowance and petition for appointment. Remember that the executor has no legal authority until they have been appointed by the court.

Can executor disagree with the will?

In that sense, it is the executor's decision and will to be the executor. Were it not his will, he would not act as executor. However, it is in the hands of the executor to allow another's will to be his own. The executor then becomes nothing other than that of a servant. The question would then become, "Does the servant honor his master's wishes?" Truly, it is not his wish. No matter what, the executor acts in accord to what he serves. Whether he serves "the will" of some other person, or the will of his own, or even another's will that is different from the one he should execute, he is executing. All are servants to something or someone. Whether it is to oneself or to something or someone else, all serve. An executor must execute, else he is not an executor. ANOTHER WAY OF LOOKING AT IT... Yes, an executor may not believe in what he is doing. He may disagree with anything and still do it. Should a person do something that he or she should not believe in? Should a person do something with which he disagree? One must ask why he disagrees with it. If he truly does disagree with it, then should that person execute? One should always stand up for what is good and right, so it makes sense that if there is any injustice in an execution that the executor should in fact not execute. To come back to the point, an executor may disagree with the will. He should not in good conscience, execute if he, in fact, did disagree with said will. Thank you and good night.


How do you tell a man about your feelings for him when he is already in a relationship?

You don't - he is in a relationship and it would be wrong to try and come between them - you wouldn't like it if someone was to do that to you. You should move forward and focus your interest elsewhere, someone who is single.


What is an Executor's commission?

A reasonable fee an executor can charge for doing all the work (and there can be a lot of it) in executing a will. This fee will be on top of any expenses and will come out of the estate before any inheritance payouts. Heirs should be able to see what the expenses and commission are, should they wish to do so - it is the duty of the executor to keep detailed records/accounts.


Who becomes the executor of an estate if no one accepts being executor and no relatives?

What do you do if you're in love with your best friend who has a girlfriend?

There is nothing you can or should do as they are already in a relationship and it would be wrong to try and come between them. You will have to move forward at this time and focus your interest elsewhere - someone single.


How long does it take to get notified about the will?

It typically takes a few weeks to a few months for beneficiaries to be notified about a will after the person has passed away. The timing can vary depending on the complexity of the estate and the probate process in the specific jurisdiction. It's best to consult with the executor or a legal professional for more specific information.


Can a parent just come and demand to be the executor?

They can name you as the executor when their will is drafted. However, you are under no obligation to serve. When the will is eventually filed in probate you only need to sign a declination and the court will appoint an executor.

Does the executor have the right to prevent heirs from entering the property in Virginia?

You should contact the attorney who is handling the estate if you have any questions about the executor's rights and responsibilities.Once the executor has been appointed by the court, she/he has the responsibility of securing and safeguarding the property until it can be distributed once the debts of the decedent have been paid. Since the executor has that legal responsibility, they cannot allow people to come and go from the property, especially people who don't understand the probate process and may remove property from the premises.You should contact the attorney who is handling the estate if you have any questions about the executor's rights and responsibilities.Once the executor has been appointed by the court, she/he has the responsibility of securing and safeguarding the property until it can be distributed once the debts of the decedent have been paid.

Should Shan go out with Joe?

Shan should wait for someone better to come along in her life. The Bible says that good things come to those who wait, and I think she should wait and see that someone better for her to come along.
