Uncle died and we were dividing things up until we found out he sold a piece to his son who died shortly there after. I don't know the sons birth or death date, just his name.
I am assuming that would be your cousin. First you can look for an obituary on line. Second you can contact vital records.

You need to hire a successions attorney to review the estate management.
Live in Louisiana. She spent money out of her account through your marriage on a variety of things. Food, house note, etc. am I legally obligated to pay that back? And if so wouldn’t that open her account up as community property
Your attorney should be able to argue that daily expenditure was a gift. But for any major expenditure, like a home remodel or car, she would be entitled to a reimbursement if she has the bank statement, invoice, or cancelled check to prove it.
It is possible but few lenders would be willing to loan against such defective collateral. The borrowers might see if they can borrow enough money to buy out the non-borrower's interest in the real property. The loan, note, deed, and security instrument can all be executed in one closing.
I paid for everything building materials, permits, deposits the only thing my name is not on is the lot. She's never wanted any money because I do all of the things her husband won't.
OMG you built your sister a house!

Depending on the status, you want to have an Order signed by the Judge stating that you are entitled to withdraw/receive those funds from the registry. Depending on the status and amount, it might be best to have a lawyer represent you and accomplish this.
The land is in the husbands estate and she lives in Louisiana. What needs to be done to get this transferred. She has two kids too.
When land transfers and a deceased person is involved, my usual answer is to hire a probate/succession lawyer to consult and possibly hire-----you want to make sure the transfer is correctly done and thus the reason you should have legal counsel. Add in the additional factor of the land being out... Read more »
