Can administrator be forced to deposit real estate settlement check? Reason she holds it is because she don’t trust me as a co administrator that I will use the funds to pays off bills. How can she be forced to deposit check?

YOU MAY HAVE TO GO TO COURT WHERE YOU WERE APPOINTED TO HAVE THEM ORDER THE CHECK TO BE DEPOSITED.

IF THE ESTATE HAS AN ATTORNEY FUNDS MAY POSSIBLY BE DEPOSITED TO HIS/HER ATTORNEY TRUST ACCOUNT AND THE ATTORNEY CAN PAY ESTATE BILLS AND DISTRIBUTE THE PROCEEDS.
