If there are hospital BALs (blood alcohol levels) which can prove this, then there is a case to be made. Secondly, it must be proven that, when the person signing is/was sober, his/her intent did or did not comport with every portion of the will. Thirdly, one was determine whether or not other wills were executed which may be in disagreement with the will in question. And on it goes.

Yes, however it is strictly up to te individual state to determine the age for an executor so you must check that particular state's laws to be absolutely certain.

It should not affect your inheritance from his will at all - you inherit from your deceased husband everything he wanted to leave you. As far as the wrongful death suit is concerned, you will probably still be entitled to receive something, but because you are now a survivor of the victim, and NOT the principal victim, it may be reduced. You may want to contact the law firm bringing the action.

It depends on how the will was written. There may be a survivorship clause. This would indicate that someone had to survive the deceased by a certain number of days in order to inherit. It was intended to avoid having estate monies going through probate twice in one years.

Beyer teaches at TTU school of law and has a very informative site concerning such issues. http://www.professorbeyer.com It depends on the size and nature of the estate. If it's just real estate, an affidavit of heirship, signed by two disinterested persons and recorded in the county deed records, is sufficient. Sometimes a small estate affidavit will do, or perhaps an application for order of no administration. Larger estates would likely need an heirship proceeding and administration. If all distributees are adults and agree, the administration can be independent of court supervision, other than determining heirs, appointing the administrator, and approving an inventory.

Yes, you can request this through the lawyers. Executors (males) Executrix (female) are performing a duty and they have to account for every cent in that Estate. If the beneficiaries want to know what is going on they should not only have a copy of the Will given to them, but the Executor should be keeping some type of bookwork or journal as to what outstandings bills they are paying for the deceased. NOTE: Jewelry and personal effects of say the mother going to her daughters can be distributed before Probate. Marcy

You must review the terms of the trust. All the provisions of the trust are set forth in the document that created the trust. It should contain language stating how the trust can be terminated. If there is no way to terminate the trust you may need to get a court order. You should consult with the attorney who drafted the trust for you.

There are community property states and separate property states.

Generally, every state has a section in the state laws that governs the powers of an attorney-in-fact under a Power of Attorney. Powers of Attorney grant sweeping powers and the attorney-in-fact should be chosen carefully.

A trust deed conveys property to a trustee who then holds title to the property according to the provisions of the trust. You need to examine the provisions of the trust document to determine who the beneficiaries are. If the house is the only property in the trust you need to read the actual trust document to determine who the beneficiaries are as recited in the trust document. That trust document controls what the trustee may do with the property and who will inherit a deceased beneficiary's interest. If the trust doesn't mention what will happen if one of the siblings dies then perhaps the trust gives the power to the trustee to convey the property by a deed TO the four siblings. You could then decide how it will be held by the four of you. If the trust states the property should ge distributed to the four children upon the death of the parents then the trustee can convey the property to the four children by deed. If that deed recites that the grantees will hold the property as joint tenants with the right of survivorship and one dies, her share will pass to the remaining siblings. If that deed recites that the grantees shall hold as tenants in common and one dies, her share goes to HER heirs. Therefore, if you get a deed from the trustee passing title to you then you can decide for yourselves how title will be held. If the trust doesn't give the trustee the power to sell then the trust will need to be modified by judge so the property can be conveyed to the heirs. In any case, you should seek legal advice from a probate/real estate attorney to straighten this matter out for you. This situation is subject to your own state laws.
