How to stop a beneficiary from pilfering an estate?
Question Details: My sister and I are beneficiaries of my deceased mom estate (there no Will as far as I know). My sister has entered into a rental agreement with an option to buy mom's house without consulting me. She has collected over $5,000 in rent without splitting it 50/50. She has either taken or sold 95% of mom's furniture and garden tools without coordinating with me. How can I prosecute her for stealing and entering into an illegal contract, or how can I relieve her of making irrational and illegal decisions?
You better be filing a petition in probate to have youself appointed as administrator of your mom's estate and obtain a restraining order against your sister to prevent her from selling the real property and a surcharge order to compel her to return the money she has collected to the estate as well as the personal property she has retained. Obtain yourself probate litigation counsel to assist you NOW.
