You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

I have a feeling you may have confused the facts. Being named as the executor on a will does not vest any powers in your sister while your mother is alive. Your sister will not have any legal authority to act until mom passes away and she is legally appointed by a court.

If your sister did anything improper, then you can challange it when the time comes. Unless she has a power of attorney she does not have any authority to act on behalf of your mom.
