Question posted in the General Law category relating to KwaZulu-Natal
My brother was nominated as an executor. And he appointed administrators to help wind the estate. The last update regarding the estate was October 2023 and was told the first advert was placed in the paper . Since January 2024 I have been trying to get an update regarding the estate from the executor However I received no response. I retrieved the information for the administrators from the Masters office and they sent me a copy of the drafted liquidation account which has loads or errors in it. I have since February been trying to get an update from them regarding the liquidation acc and am continuously being told the executor has not responded to them. And they normally only respond to the person who appointed them. So the past 6 months nothing has been done with finalizing the liquidation acc. And I have reached my point where I have enough of this back and forth and getting no progress . What can I do. I would like to email the master and inform the master what is happening.
