My jurisdiction is: California

My father-in-law recently passed away. He was living with my sister-in-law before he passed. She has all his paperwork. My husband is the executor of his estate under the living trust, but she will not turn the living trust documents over. She has threaten to have my husband arrested for transpassing if he goes to her house.

What can he do?
 
He should send a registered letter to her requesting the living trust document and giving her a week to comply. He can also talk to the lawyer who drew up the trust to see if there is another copy. Or check the wills registry (if your jurisdiction permits the filing of living trusts). If there is no other copy and she is obstinate, he'll have to get a court order. I suggest he talk to a lawyer immediately.
