Since it is inherited funds, it is not marital. Perhaps he is not telling you anything because he is still recovering from the loss of his father and the last thing on his mind is what you are entitled to? Just a nonlegal observation.

Inherited money or property is not a marital asset. Because it isn't you have no claim on his inheritance.
