[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on your DH and what promises his mother will make him keep. If she doesn’t leave a trust fund for him, you are not on the hook to do anything except give him his share of inheritance. 
However it’s usually sentimental stuff that saddles siblings with care. 
Personally if I had an in law like this and was free to act, I’d just give him his share and block any further contact. For my own sibling I’d try to secure a modest roof over their head.

Btw you may have issues with him insisting to stay in the house and blocking the sale and division of estate, while your humble DH does nothing. [/quote]

Yep, this is what an older cousin of mine did to his siblings. He changed the locks on the house after the funeral and wouldn’t let anyone in and let it be known that no one was to take stuff from the house, even items that belonged to siblings that they had left there during the time the mother was in her last illness. Years later, he somehow sold the house and pocketed the proceeds, something I can’t figure out how he managed to do.

So if this would be a big problem for you, keep an eye on things after your MIL passes away.
