My mother passed away unexpectedly in March 2022, and my brother has been appointed as the administrator of her estate. I believe my mother would have wanted me and my daughter, who lived with her for 12 years, to inherit her house. However, since we can't find her will and I have a felony record, I was not allowed to be the administrator. My brother has since sold the house without my knowledge or consent. What are my legal rights in this situation, and what can I do to ensure a fair distribution of my mother's estate?
