Is there a time frame when someone dies for the reading of the will?
|
My brother-in-law has lived in Grandma 's house for years, in this house where Grandma never tossed anything. Her things were treasures to her and I know she had a lot of it stipulated as to what she wanted done about it. In the meanwhile my brother-in-law, who's unemployed and a regular user of e-bay, has a free and clear ticket to do with all of her stuff as he wishes because hes argued with my husband who won't go over there now because he was threatened with the police and treaspassing charges. My brother-in-law has locked out his uncle too who is spineless and won't say anything any way, has never said anything to his nephew who has always been a selfish, self serving person. This uncle says hes put in two calls to the attorney who has the will but has not gotten a return call.. There must be some kind of a time frame but I don't know how to find out this information. Does anyone know these laws or where I can find out?

The "reading of the will" is only done in the movies. In real life, a will is presented to probate court where the judge will empower a person to act as executor. The executor is responsible for protecting the assets of the estate and for distributing the assets under the terms of the will.
If someone with a will refuses to respond, it may be that the attorney is representing another person and, therefore, has no obligation to respond to others.
Of course, any interested person may consult their own attorney to find out what options may be available. One does not need a will to file for some administrations before the probate court. Check with your attorney. |

Wills are only "read" in bad movies
There is no timefram where probate must be started.
If you wish to force action, you'll need a lawyer to kick this forward; otherwise keep bugging the lawyer with teh will |

"The reading of the will" does not happen as most people believe. The executor of the will reads the will and executes it. How long they have to do so depends on state law. |
