Legal Question in Elder Law in New Jersey
I was caregiver for both my mother and father. My miother recently died, and I went into deep grieving. One of my sisters thinks I was using delaying tactics since I am executor of her will and didn't read her will immediately to them.. She went on to say in her letter "To this day you have never provided me with a copy of Dad's will, (He died in 2004) One has to wonder if it was because Charles was the Executor, and was the Executor Authority usurped? This couse of conduct is both troubling and disappointing."
Needless to say, I have been honorable throughout the 9 years, taking care of my parents and I am very hurt that she would insult me like that, especially since my parents trusted me with their very lives. (my sister has never ever helped in any way, and hardly visited).
What I take further exception to is that she sent copies of that letter to both my other sister and my brother. Now my other sister is having doubts since the seed was planted.
I have legal paperwork to prove my innocence in all of this. Is there any action I can take against my sister as she spreads word of her thoughts, or any action before or after the reading of the will which is in a few days?
Please help me.
Thank you.
