Will Probate Question - Tarrant County
I'll hand it to Tarrant County, they get shit done! My wife e-mailed the county clerk and asked for a copy of the will and she sent it within 10 minutes. Looks like my mom is SOL. Everything was willed to the nieces. Thanks Texas law hawks!

Will Probate Question - Tarrant County
My mom's step mother "Mary" passed away last December. Her dad has been deceased twenty years or more so. My mom believes that there are heirlooms from her side of the family which "should" go to her. There is also the question of disposition of the house in Fort Worth ($300,000). However, "Mary's" living relatives (nieces) have taken over the probate process with Tarrant County. The nieces are acting a little shady and less than honest - they didn't even notify my mother of Mary's death until five months afterwards. The conversation that they did have was very cryptic. They pretty much have excluded my mom from all information regarding "Mary's" death and have told her not to ever call them. My mom is elderly, a little confused, and getting angry. She had a good life long relationship with her step-mother. Almost all of the furniture in the house belonged to her father. I told her that I'd do a little fact finding and see how she should proceed. I found the applicable Tarrant County probate record on-line. There is a lead attorney retained in Fort Worth. The Independent Executor is in Arkansas (where Mary's family is from) Under "Public Notice" it states: Unknown, missing, or incapacitated heir. The current probate status is : "Order Extending Time to File Inventory & Appraisement - extended to 9/25/18. So I guess the question is - what is the best way to get a copy of my grandma's will? And what do we do if there was no will? edit: there is a copy of the will filed according to the Tarrant filing. Thank you law hawks.

Bourdain's net worth was $1.2 million which seems surprisingly low to me. He also included his daughter's nanny in the will. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/anthony-bourdains-will-reveals-net-worth-of-1-2m/- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
I have a bunch of Wyndham reward points that are going to expire on me so I booked four nights over Thanksgiving weekend in New Orleans. I chose NO because we can drive from Austin instead of flying. In other words I'm Dutch. I just realized that that weekend is The Bayou Classic - Grambling State and Southern University. We just wanted to chill, eat some good food, and go to the WWII museum. I spent a weekend in the French Quarter during the Essence Festive in the 90's so this type of event isn't going to keep me away necessarily. But back then I was young, high, and very drunk - which is a great way to go through life. Now I'm old, sober, and with my wife. Should we reconsider? If we reconsider, do any of you have a suggestion for a nice Wyndham property within driving distance of Austin?
