How much information is a residual beneficiary entitled to? As one executor of my father's estate (my brother is the other) I understand the beneficiaries are entitled to be informed and consulted about the progress of sorting the estate.
We're selling the house and have used a local agent, provided their written explanation of the market price, along with their advice on which offer to accept. At each stage, one beneficiary has made assertions and asked questions which result from serious misunderstandings of the information he's had. He persists in demanding that we answer his incoherent questions, and refuses to make them any clearer.
We'd like to just ignore him, but he's been sabre-rattling about litigation, so we feel rather cautious.
Any advice?
