ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

My mother left her AT&T stock to me in her will. My sister (executor) is very spiteful now and claiming my stock as hers. Has even sold one of them. How can they assign stock without proof that it in fact belongs to the person claiming to be that person, since she has all my personal information for probate?
I even sent AT&T a copy of the will showing them it was mine legally. No response. I only got a letter stating that as I requested at least one of them has been sold and I did not sell any of it.
Can I sue AT&T for giving away or selling my stock without my consent?

ANSWER BY MARGARET CROSS-BELIVEAU:

The executor has authority to sell probate property. If your sister is not following the terms of the will, then you should hire an attorney to represent you in the probate.
