In it, he appointed me as executor. My brother had no real estate, and I ve paid all his debts. When someone dies, the responsible parties must decide how to tie-up all the remaining business and property left by the decedent. Texas law provides several different types of probate administration, and the one you use depends on the circumstances. Your brother wrote his own Will, and it sounds like it is a valid Will.
Any single heir has veto power by refusing to make the request.
He would gain assurance that your actions will be legal and honest due to the supervision, but he would be forcing a slower and more expensive process. In this process, you do not ask to become executor at all. You just ask that the court approve his Will, and that anything he owned when he died becomes the property of his son and the church, as he stated in his Will. Since you are not appointed as executor, you are not responsible for fulfilling the terms of the Will. Second, since your brother has no real estate, you should look very carefully at each of his financial accounts.
