If the executor of my mothers will is my brother and he is incapacitated due to illness, how do we name a new executor? Would his POA takeover?

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Your mother should contact a local estate planning attorney and name a new executor and successor executor. A POA does not give the principal, your brother, the right to name someone in preference to whomever is named by your mother in her Will.
