What happens when it can be shown that the executor did not carry out the stipulations in the will ie. did not give an item to the recipient nominated by the deceased in the will but kept it?

You can go to the probate court with your PROOF and ask the Judge to look at the mishandling of the estate by the court appointed/deceased appointed executor/ix.
Note the word PROOF as they will try and show that you are wrong.
Is it by distinct description to YOU by name?

The estate cannot be closed, nor the exec discharged until each beneficiary has signed a written receipt for his/her benefit AND has had an opportunity to object. A wronged beneficiary may also request -- in writing, copy to the exec. and all other interetsted parties -- a court order directing the exec to disburse a benefit. Best to have a lawyer do it.

You can petition the court for contempt charges. You can sue the person for the value of the item.

You can petition the court or see the original lawyer, who drafted the will.

You'll have to get a lawyer and go to probate court!
