As a beneficiary of the will, you may not have the legal right to see the will before your mother dies unless your mother or the executor chooses to share it with you. After your mother passes away, the executor is legally required to provide the beneficiaries with a copy of the will during the probate process. If you have concerns about the process or your rights, it may be helpful to consult with a legal professional specializing in estate matters.
No. You have no right to a living person's will.
No actions need to be taken, as your mother still lives. She can modify the will to appoint a new executor. Or when she does pass on, the court can appoint someone else to serve.
Yes. The POA expired at the moment your mother died. Your sister has no power over your mother's assets. You need to petition the probate court to be appointed the executor. Once you have been appointed you will have full authority over your mother's assets and the settling of her estate.
There is a form that is submitted to the court with the will to request a letter of authority. It can recommend who wishes to be the executor. In most cases, unless there is controversy, the court will appoint that person. Otherwise the court will appoint a neutral party.
Yes, if your brother is an heir or the executor of her estate.
The child of your mother's sister is your first cousin.
No, but I am making 2 assumptions. I take it that the sister's executor is the mother's beneficiary. I also assume that the mother survived any survivability period that might have been imposed by the will or statute. That being so, the property has vested in the mother, meaning it has become her property now. The only person who can transfer the deceased mother's property is the mother's executor. The correct procedure is for the sister's executor to make an executor's deed to the mother. Then the mother's executor will make a deed to the son. The fact that the mother died before the sister's executor made the deed to his mother does not deprive the mother of the property. The only way the property would not become the mother's is if the will required her to survive the sister by a certain period of time (as many wills do) and she failed to do so. But what happens then creates another problem which I won't go into here. Lastly, as always in probate matters you must check the laws of the state the probate is in.

Niece. Your mother has children, you and your sister. So your mother's daughter is your sister. When she has a daughter, this is your niece.
I am a joint executor of a property that has been left to me and my sister in our mothers will. Are we qualified to rent out this property on lease, without the need to transfer ownership.
In most cases, your sister's mother is also your mother, and her husband is your father. If you and your baby sister have the same father but different mothers, your sister's mother's father is your father. If you and you sister have the same mother but different fathers, your baby sister's father is your step-father if he is married to your mother.
Yes, she can petition the court to be the sole executor. If there is conflict, the court may very well appoint a third party, a bank or attorney, without a vested interest in the estate. This typically costs the estate money in the form of compensation to the executor.
Your mother's sister's husband's sister is your aunt's sister-in-law, but is not related to you. Here's why: Your mother's sister is your aunt. The sister of a woman's husband would be her sister-in-law. In this case the woman is your aunt. So your mother's sister's husband's sister would be your aunt's sister-in-law.
