My father made a will ( registered)leaving his house and movable property to his three daughters He gave strange powers to Mr A ( the executer?) re using and selling the house but did not mention his name re movable property bank accounts etc. My question 1. If Mr A i(executor of the will )is supposed to get the probate?i don't want him to get for reasons I can't explain in few words.if he does is he responsible for money matters as well? 2.can only one sister get probate to avoid Mr A taking probate as I live abroad and the middle one has ganged up with the executor.does it have to be applied jointly? 3. My father has left enough money in the banks but our middle sister would do anything to annoy us even if she has to suffer financially. If the will is not executed we would have problem in getting his other money from Punjab as well. Please advise.
