Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas
Probate of will
If two wills are made, one for the mother who died first, and another for the stepfather, who dies a year later, Who will execute the second will? Would it be the executor who did the first will for the mother (and was also had power of attorney for the stepfather), or the mentioned executor who was in the will?
Also, is there a statute of limitations, concerning the probate of a will in Texas, and Can an exexutor sell the inherits home and property without approval of other in the will?
Thanks

Re: Probate of will
The second will should have an alternate executor that would be probated. If it does not, then the second will may be probated by any interested party. The statute of limitations on a will is four years from the date of death.
