If the daughter is the persoanl representative of the father's probate estate, she has as long as that particular court will allow for deciding how to divide the property. If she has not been appointed personal representative, and is nto trustee of a trust that own the propety, she is nto the executor of anything. She will remain in power as long as the foolish other heirs at law (her brothers) allow her to.
