Probate granted three and half years ago, joint executors are son and daughter, one Bank account in name of deceased father closed with Bank and funds held by solicitor.
The co executors have conflict and one will not sign a distribution statement for funds to be paid to the sole beneficiary, the mother of the executors (wife of the deceased).
To apply to the court for removal of executor is expensive and no guarantees. Any alternatives?
Over three years and beneficiary has not received funds

Hi Bluntaxe

There are no alternatives as only the court has the power to remove the executors.

Kind regards
