Possibly, It’s really answer this question requires a lot more information from you I suggest: a attorney that handles probate. If your grandmother theater was entitled to inherit then your parent ( grandmother’s child ) could also inherit

First of all sorry for your loss.
It sounds as though you may be able to do a summary probate if everyone agrees. The probate can be handled without the need to travel to Oklahoma. I assume that you mother was single at the time of death. If so the estate would be divided 5 ways. If... View More
My father's widow (my step mother) does not want anything to do with his estate, and mineral rights. It has been 11 years since his death, and I was wondering if there was any specific paperwork that needs to be filled out saying she does not want heirship of his estate.
answered on Mar 29, 2018
It sounds like you need to probate the estate. The stepmother can just clean your interest.
If a probate has already been done she can just quit claim the property to you.

Unless he had a trust you will probably need probate in the state where he owned property. You may be able to take care of things,or most of them, from home if an attorney is used.
He has locked the information away (all copies of her will)and taken away the combination too her safe. She is also being told that her money is running out and I am not sure this is factual. I am concerned by the secrecy.

Your mother can write a new Will.
If you fear financial abuse you may seek a Guardianship. See an attorney in your area.

You may want to contact the Adult Protective Services division of the Department of Human Services. If this was an internet email dating scam they won't stop attempting to contact you. You could sue if defrauded but it is very unlikely that any attorney would take it on a contingency basis.
My mother passed away 2 years ago and was involved in receiving settlement funds from her father's death.

Summary Probate is a Fast Tract. In order for there to be an estate you will need to file a probate action. The judge will issue letters to the representative who can then open an estate account. This might be eligible for a summary probate process.

You are likely the victim of a scam. There is probably no dog, just cute pictures.
I understand that in Oklahoma we would have to file a lawsuit to foreclose. If a judgment is granted in our favor as sellers, does the property have to be sold at auction or does that give us the right to retake possession?
answered on Mar 26, 2018
You are correct. A Contract for Deed is actually treated as a deed to the purchaser and a mortgage back to the seller. Because it gives the purchaser an interest in land the mortgage (contract for deed balance) would have to be foreclosed and sold at sheriff's sale. If it sells for more... View More

Start with www.oscn.net. You can search to see if a probate has been filed.

His children received his assets when he died. My sister and I were suppose to receive the property to split. How do we proceed
answered on Mar 14, 2018
First of all sorry for your loss.
1. I would have an attorney review the way the property was titled. If it was in joint tenancy and the husband died first, then the property would have passed to your mother without probate. If that is the case it is doubtful that his children would have... View More

It is likely that a probate will be needed. A summary probate (which can often be wrapped up in 3 months or less) may be a good choice if:
1. The value of the estate is less than or equal to Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00);
2. The decedent has been deceased for more... View More
The dogs were sent with a friend who lives in south Texas for temporary housing while the owner was going through a dog barking citation case in Oklahoma City, when that concluded the woman in Texas refused to return these valuable dogs. What should she do?
answered on Mar 6, 2018
She could sue for conversion to recover the dogs. This would be expensive. She may also be able to file a police report but would likely be told this is a "civil" matter.
