daughter wants the wedding ring held in her grandmother's safe deposit box since 1989, and has been asking mother for it since grandmother passed away in 2003. Mother will not say anything about the ring to this day except that it is her duty to sell the ring and distribute the money evenly to all of the heirs. Despite the daughter's strong objection, and repeated inquirys there is no further comment or details at all. In 1989 the engagement ring alone was appraised at $13,000, there is an additional 3.0 ct of baguette diamonds on a wide 24kt band that wasn't appraised. daughter wants to know what has become of the wedding ring she wore throughout her 6yr marriage, but does not want to resort to a courtroom for many reasons. Mother is not going to explain, hoping statute of limitations will run out. Does mother, as Agent, have a duty to provide a detailed inventory of the estate? is it terrible to take legal action against one's own mother?
