Probate

Perhaps. You need to review the Will to determine if authority over the burial was given to the executor of the estate. The executor must be appointed by the court in order to exercise any authority granted in the Will.

If there was no will or if burial was not mentioned in the Will then you should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate in your jurisdiction.

This depends on several factors, being primarily a combination of the language of the applicable will (if any) and applicable probate code or laws. So the will (if any) and applicable probate code or laws must be examined.

In a traditional probate case under court supervision, the representative (executor or administrator) will normally be required to seek court authority to list property for sale and then if and when a contract that is acceptable comes in, to seek court approval to proceed with the sale, or an order can be entered that could allow both liting and sale without further order if a purchase price comes in within a specified price range. In this kind of probate case, it may be absolutely necessary to make the contract for sale contingent upon probate court approval (within an agreed amount of time), to protect the representative and the estate from a situation where a court disapproves a sale.

Most states also have one or another kind of "streamlined" probate procedure, sometimes called "summary" or "independent" administration, depending on other factors (although by law a will may still be able to prohibit it). Under this kind of administration, as long as the representative is acting within the standards set up by the code, then the representative may be able to proceed with a listhing and sale without court approval and simply report the sale to the court at the prescribed time. Even so the representative can usually still ask the court for instructions on a particular matter, in which case the court's decision governs.

Again, the will, if any, and applicable probate code and laws must be examined. There may be additional factors that mandate "supervised" administration of a particular property.

Your sentence didn't end. Your sentence WAS probation and you escaped it. You NEVER completed your sentence. Sort of like escaping from jail and running away. The best thing for you to do would be to contact the court that sentenced you and determine how best to address this because, like it or not, this WILL come back to bite you - usually when you least expect it AND at the worst possible time.

Not without breaching their duty to the estate. There are ways they can do that, one of them is if the third person declines to receive their share.

A court appointed executor must settle the estate with as much expediency as possible. When the executor acts in an unreasonable manner a complaint an be filed with the court. The court will hear the evidence and if it decides the executor is not performing their duties appropriately it can issue a court order to compel the executor to act. If the neglect continues the beneficiaries can request the executor be removed and a successor appointed.

You should speak with the attorney who is handling the estate.

It will depend on the complexity of the will. In most cases it will take about a year to clear everything up. If the records are good, it could be shorter.

Having a will, properly made and witnessed, means that your property goes where you'd prefer it to go after your death and, given care, means your family and friends will not fight over what you leave. You can simplify things by making gifts of various property to others prior to your death; these gifts are difficult to challenge provided you're considered to be of sound mind at the time of giving.

The Administrator must file the proper notices that the estate has been filed to give the creditors the opportunity to file claims against the estate. The estate is responsible for the debts of the deceased. Claims by creditors must be paid before any assets can be distributed to the heirs-at-law. There is a statutory schedule by which creditors must be paid. If there are not enough assets to pay the creditors the estate is declared insolvent. The adminstration of an estate is a legal process that must be done according to the law. If the appointed Administrator doesn't know how to carry out their duties according to the law they should hire an attorney to supervise the probate process. Distribution of assets before creditors are paid can leave the Administrator exposed to personal liability.

The next of kin (i.e surviving spouse) must apply for Probate. Under English Law if the person who died did not make a will then the deceased died intestate as such the surviving spouse is only entitled to receive part of the estate. Please see Probate help below for more details

In this specific case, yes, but it can vary. If it can be proven that the daughter had lived only seconds longer than the mother the estate would go to daughter's and thence to her heirs. In this case, two weeks, it would become part of the daughter's estate. However this can have a devastating effect on the estate, subjecting it to inheritance taxes twice, or Generation Skipping Tax. The Uniform Simultaneous Death Act provides that if two individuals have died within 120 hours, each is considered to have pre-deceased the other. About half the states have enacted this either explicitly or by adopting the Uniform Probate Code. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_death A will can specify a longer time for simultaneous death to be considered.

A contract is a legally enforceable agreementbetween two or more parties with mutual obligations. The remedy at law for breach of contract is "damages" or monetary compensation. In equity, the remedy can be specific performance of the contract or an injunction. Both remedies award the damaged party the "benefit of the bargain" or expectation damages, which are greater than mere reliance damages, as in promissory estoppel.
