Executor of a Will
If there is more than one executor named in a will, are both individuals always required to sign whatever documentation is needed to be filed, etc... Such as selling a home, any assets???

Re: Executor of a Will
If the will appointed the executors jointly both should approve and sign all transactions. If some how the language of the will named them to act jointly or singularly (unlikely) then one could act alone. If one executor is not in the jurisdiction it is possible the out of state Executor may have given power of attorney for the other to act or perhaps one relinquished his or her right to act. You should review with an attorney your specific concerns

Did the Register of Wills issue "letters"?
Did an attorney review the process with you?
