You only have so long in this life-time, why waste it getting mad and holding on to it. Feel good that you did the responsible thing. Your brother will one day realize what he has done and reality will hit. Remember what comes around, goes around. We may not always see it happen but your brother will pay a price for what he has done, especially being it was family.

No your not wrong for feeling that way.Yet there are two ways you can handle this.One take him to court .Or two make him see what he did was wrong he lost his family over money, believe me living with guilt is usually the worst thing a person like him could do. Good luck.

Just let it go. I will just continue to make you angry if you dwell on it. It sounds like your brother and his wife are on drugs. If that's the case, there is really no reason to stay in contact with them at all. Eventually, they may see the error of their ways, but taking them to court will just cost you more money.

Once you have proof that the money was suppose to go towards your dads marker, then i say carry them to court.

I think that was really disrespectful of your brother. If the money rightfully belonged to your Mom, you should do all that you can to give her whats hers. Sorry to hear about your Dad

Unless you had a contract (verbal counts - but he would have to admit to it) with your brother, I'm not sure it would hold up in court.
Sorry your brother is a waste of space.
Whether you want to end your relationship with your brother over money is up to you.

you have a right to be upset but you need to forgive your brother and sister-in-law and try to see if they will agree to pay back the money that they misused before having to take them to court .

Take them on Judge Judy. She'll set them straight and you'll get your mother's money back. What jerks!

your question is really confusing. BUT if you gave your brother your moms money, i dont think you can sue him for it. i think your SH&^ out of luck! its pretty shitty of your brother to do that!!
