My wife's father's will was probated last May and her brother, who is the
executor, has not informed her if some stock that was left to her, has been put
in her name. It has lost over $16,000 since then. Her father told her to sell it
as soon as possible since it is in a long term decline with no prospects to
recover anytime soon. Her brother will not tell the other children anything about
their inheritence, just saying he is in charge and is doing what his father put
him in charge of doing. The other children have retained a lawyer but so far the
lawyer has not been able to find out anything. He says they will probably have to
go to court. Has anyone had any experience with something like this? Do you think
my wife could force her brother to pay the differnce in the stock out of his own
resources, even if it meant going to court.
