sueing over will: My husband passed away almost a year ago. Before he died he changed his will leaving everything to me. His children are sueing.
They say he was not in his right mind when he signed the papers. This has been going on about a year. They keep changing the court date. Can I go ahead and sell the house. - Is this your question? Add additional information

If the children are suing, I presume you are also represented by a lawyer. Assuming that the lawyer is knowledgeable, you should be asking him/her whether you can sell the house, since that's who will defend you on the consequences of your actions.
