In common estates, suspect executor behavior will create suspicious beneficiaries. Although the beneficiary may view the executor behavior as suspect, the behavior may not be suspect at all. As described in the article Executor Rights to an Estate, the executor has rights granted by the probate court in which most beneficiaries are unaware. Furthermore, if the executor ignores the beneficiaries, the beneficiaries may become suspicious of the executor’s activities. In common estates, this type of miscommunication usually leads to costly conflicts.
