It would be highly unlikely that a 100% in person participation is required by any state law, but I have no idea what the relevant documents say.
It didn't seem like that would be likely.

If not, then yes, depending on the way the documentation is worded, it might be necessary to take her to court.
That's good to know, that might be a good tactic to tell her not to have it come to court. But tbh I think she's relying on the reluctance of the rest of her family to actually take her to court. Even faced with that scenario though she could still pursue it ... ppl in my family can be incredibly stubborn.

I agree but sometimes being nice is seen as a sort of tacit admission of wrong doing and ppl have an ego that just won't allow for it ... see above ^^^
