My ex-husband's father died 6 years ago and left no will. He was not married, but has 4 adult children, who unfortunately do not get along. The father had a small piece of property and an old house that is falling down. The oldest sister is just biding her time until all the other heirs are gone...
doesn't this depend on whether the person had a will or not? Cause I was told from Maine Probate Court that you have 3 years if there was a will and there is no time limit if there was not will.
