What to do if the administrator of an estate to which I am an heir was ordered by the court to distribute the remaining assets so it could be closed but they have not yet done so?

The order was issued 9 months ago, however they have yet to comply with that order. Can I file a motion to comply at this time?

As a beneficiary of the court order, as an heir of the estate, yes you can file a motion to comply with the court order, if distribution has not been completed within a reasonable time; but you are advised to obtain experience probate counsel to assist you in this proceeding.
