My mom died Friday; can I legally go to her house and get a few mementos that are rightfully mine? DETAILS?
Sunday, October 16th, 2011i lived with my mother for fourteen years before I married and always paid half of everything. We bought a TV together and I drew portraits and other artwork that I gave to her. My sister has been living there for two years, no job, drug and alcohol addict, mooching off of my mom. My mom was disabled and drew SS check; no other money coming in. My sister and her girlfriend are on the verge of being arrested for forging and cashing one of my mom’s checks while my mom lay dying in ICU. My other sister and I are not greedy; we do not want to take everything. We just want a few things. Can my sister prevent us from doing this or try to have us arrested?
I live in Georga USA.
No one was executor of estate. My name is on her checking account, that’s it.
