[NJ] [PA] Pressure to complete estate due to child support arrears.
Author Summary

PA law for estate NJ law regarding Child support I'm being rushed on a small estate I am working on, there are two things a car and finances in an account. Me the executor and my mom the second beneficiary. There are chains of requirements I must do to properly finish an estate and not risk running out of finances risking that I pay it out of pocket. By legal standards my mom has been a child support deadbeat for years, always being garnished and when she received some proceeds from something I did earlier this year while the descendent was still alive they dried up, she got evicted from an apartment for neglect and her accounts assets were seized. She is now homeless.

Im legally not required to rush an estate and can handle the pressure, and she's already received some of the money from the estate due to 'emergency' like she voluntarily had me put her in a hotel for the time as she found a shelter. The past two weeks she's been attacking me verbally for dragging my feet and withholding finances from her. And she's behind on child support and allegedly will be in contempt if she doesn't pay money today and be out for arrest.

What do I do to protect myself, paying out funds prematurely on a probate estate is risky, objectively I am not liable for her legal issues and she is delaying the inevitable as NJ(state in question for child support) will come asking for more in time. She is homeless, unemployed and ultimately she might be facing this reality one way or another.
