If the executor has not filed the will for probate then you should contact an attorney and petition the court to be appointed the administrator of the estate as though there was no will.

Your mother's will should be probated. The court will decide if the will is valid and then will appoint the executor. Since your sister is the named executor the court will want either to appoint her or will want her to decline to be appointed in writing. You can then petition to be appointed. Once the will has been allowed and the executor has been appointed the distribution of the property must be carried out according to the law, to the provisions of the will and in a timely manner. Creditors will have an opportunity to make a claim. If your mother owned any real estate her estate MUST be probated in order for title to pass to her heirs. If she had bank accounts in her name alone the executor will be given authority by the court to close the accounts and distribute the proceeds. If your mother owned any such property you should seek the advice of an attorney.
