No. The executor would need to file a resignation with the court and the court will appoint a successor.

If you are the executer can someone else take over your authority and duties without your knowing about it?

No. You are the court appointed executor unless the court appoints someone else because you have failed to perform your duties as executor. In that case the court would notify you and there would be a hearing.


Can executor appoint a representative?

Generally, an executor can appoint an "agent" who can act on their behalf. This is done when the executor lives some distance from where the estate is being probated or in another state. You should ask the attorney who is handling the estate. If the executor simply wants to appoint someone else to take over their duties that would not be approved by the court. In that case, the executor should decline and let the court appoint another person as executor.Generally, an executor can appoint an "agent" who can act on their behalf.

What happens if executor dies before will is settle?

If an executor dies before the will is settled, the probate court will typically appoint a successor executor to take over the responsibilities. This could be an alternate executor named in the will, or if none is designated, the court may appoint someone else, often a close relative or an interested party. The probate process may be delayed slightly as the new executor is established, but the overall administration of the estate can continue. It's important for the heirs or beneficiaries to communicate with the probate court to ensure a smooth transition.

Who do you report your brother to if he has taken over your duties as executor of mother's estate by removing original documents from parent's files?

First, the named executor must be appointed by the court. Once appointed the court issues Letters Testamentary to the executor and the letters provide the authority to settle the estate. Another person cannot 'take over' the executorship because the letters are issued in the name of the court appointed executor.The court appointed executor has the authority to settle the estate according to the provisions in the will and according to the state probate laws under the supervision of the court. The executor also acts under the umbrella of the state probate laws. The brother's behavior can be reported to the court and the court has the power to issue a court order to return the files he has taken can and impose further legal sanctions if necessary.
