Probate is the act of the Clerk of Court admitting your mother's last will as valid and filing that will with the Clerk. Once probated , the Estate must be administered. If you are the named Executor in the will that will be your obligation. The process is quite confusing and I suggest you hire an Attorney to help you. If someone else is the executor, you should ask them when the Will is to be filed and get a copy of the will. Then ask an Attorney to guide you if you are an heir.
