I''m the executrix of my sister''s estate and her estranged husband will not allow me to get access to her personal property inside her house.

Can I just write to the Wayne County, Nc Clerk of court and ask them to compel him to allow me access? I need to do a 90-day inventory and it has been postponed twice already because I can''t get access. I had an attorney quit because I wanted her to contact the Clerk of court and try to get me access. I can''t do what I''m required to do if I can''t get anyone to compel him to allow me access to the house. Her husband left her in 1992 and fathered 3 children outside the marriage, 1 which was born before he left her. That''s why he left to be with the child and it''s mother. He has also filed for a yealry spousal allowance.
