my aunt supposedly sold property that belonged to my mother and others; with the help of her attorney, she received monitary compensation from a judgment and sold the property along with the mineral rights. Do we have any recourse?

only if the interested parties can prove title to the property.
your recourse is to litigate the aunt.
if your names were on the title deed, the lawyer can also be sued.

You can't sell property that doesn't belong to you legally. In most property sales a title search is done to verify who actually owns all interests in the property and makes sure that said parties deed out their interest. Same story with mineral rights. Take a trip to the local courthouse, look at the public records in the deed room for the property in question; if at that point you believe the property was your mothers contact a local att'y and look into a recovery suit.

If your aunt sold it- then it was prob just in her name or like your saying- she had a judge rule that the property was hers to sell. You can't sell property unless the title clears (like when you buy a home the biggest part is getting the title) you Aunt would NOT have been able to sell the home if anyone's name was on that title. If your mother really owned the home- she would have had to sign a release. My guess is the person didn't have a will and your aunt some how got everything put in her name or it was left to her. And if it's your mother property- it's not really yours, unless your mother died and left you that property.
You need to look into whom the property was really left to.. sometime sibbling think because they are related that they get equal parts but if your grandmother only left it to your aunt- it's her and her's only.

No,they're signaling that they ought to pay the deficit down with out raising taxes on the money that they have socked away today. even as George Sorros starts circling the drain you'll see them lay off the inheritance tax. God knows they favor all that dough to stay contained in the Democratic social gathering and not in any respect pass to the federal authorities.
