Re: probate
Thank you for your questions about your father's estate. I noticed that you listed Idaho as one of your states. Unfortunately, I cannot answer your questions unless your father died in Minnesota or owned real estate here. Please give me a call, I'd be glad to help you out.

Re: probate
You certainly appear to have a right to demand an accounting from your stepbrother but you will have to bring an action to do so. You will incur legal fees and expenses so you have an issue as to whether it will be worth it. You certainly should file a written objection to the probate in the file that your stepbrother began. There are several questions that an attorney needs answers to in order to help you. Call an attorney directly to discuss the matter. Dennis
