More details to this question:
I don't understand what steps I have to go through to accomplish this. My sister filed in Utah, but my mother lived and died in Nevada, according to my research her probate won't stand since my mother died in Nevada. I'm the oldest sibling and planned to ensure my mothers' estate was properly taken care of and assets distributed through the family as necessary.
