Re: Legal Notice For Administrator Of An Estate?

My sister passed away last month. I have signed the paperwork to be the administrator of her estate. It was signed the week of May 9. The paperwork was carried to the probate court in the adjacent county. The judge was vacation that particular week but has returned. In my opinion, there has been more than enough time to sign the paperwork and submit it to the local paper for the legals section; however, the judge has failed to do so. Is there a time frame involved here? Once the papers are signed, how long does probate court have to get the legal notice in the legal organ? I have reason to believe there is some stalling here both on the part of the judge and on the part of a third party who was not related to my sister who's trying to cause me trouble. If the judge is not going to do her job, seems they would need to notify me. I feel like I should drop the whole matter; it's my opinion this judge could be crooked.
