Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in New York

Probate Status

I am an heir and one of my siblings appointed himself as admin. (mother died without a will) and my portion of the inheritance is being withheld from me on false pretenses. Do I have a right to know how assets were divided? Is this info available to me from the courts? How do I get it?
