Not a lawyer - but I was the executor of my mother-in-laws estate.

That said: if for all practical purposes she died intestate, the judge removed the other five, your wife is the personal representative which allows her to sell/dispose of the property - why not go down to the county clerks office with the court rulings (papers) and see if you can have your wife named on the deed.

We are in different states so different laws - but here in Virginia we did a very similar thing. We were told that we needed a title company to do it when in fact we didn't. A friend of my wife's who is a paralegal dug up the paperwork for us - we filled it out - and went to the county clerks office and filed. Done deal.

Any way - worth a shot. Hope it all works out for you soon.
