Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in North Carolina
My dad did not have a will so his estate was split between my sister and I. The estate is now closed with the exception of 3 vehicles. They were titled to my sister and I. She refuses to sign the titles in order for us to sell them. She was not a part of my dad's life, but has enjoyed his money in the year since he passed. I want to sell the cars and give her half of the money, but I can't until she signs the titles. The only paperwork I founf was a living will, listign me, and then my husband. She is no where on anything. Is that enough to bypass her and get the cars sold? They have been in storage for over a year. Thank you

A living will is not a will. It is a directive to one's health care providers and it ends at death. You will have to re-open the estate and petition the court to sell the property or else seek partition of the cars.
