Hrushka Is the Executor of Her Father's Will

question 13

True/False

Hrushka is the executor of her father's will. She does not want to liquidate any part of his stock portfolio at this time to pay off a large debt he owed Tom, because the market is very low right now and she would get a better price later in the year. Her verbal promise to Tom that she will repay him herself is unenforceable.
