Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Georgia
Estate in Probate
My dad left in his will
that his personal items
be separated ''per
sterpes'' but my sister
doesn't want any of his
cars (2) and she said
that she said that I
should have them and
she will put that in
writing. The trust officer
acting as executor is
insisting that one of the
cars be sold and my
sister and I (both adults)
think that is insane and
uncalled for. What are
your thoughts? Is there
anyway we can just
relay to the executor
that we both agree on
what to do and there is
no problem and we'll put
that in writing. Thanks
for the help.

Re: Estate in Probate
Heirs can't simply decide to tell an executor to ignore a will's language. Since no one here has read the will or other probate paperwork, it's impossible to tell you what the will requires.
