Once a parents rights are terminated that also terminates the child's rights to inherit under the intestate laws of the state. However, a parent can make the child an heir under a Will.

If you are asking if you can be appointed Personal Representative (the P.R. is what Maryland calls the executor), the rules for and out-of-state and in-state P.R.'s are the same, except that you must have a resident agent appointed - someone in Maryland to accept legal service, etc.

He passed away in California, California law will control. In Texas you would have a problem. Why did you think you were his legal executor if there was no will or probate proceeding appointing you? While people do start collecting the assets of the deceased right away (frequently to pay final expenses), until appointed, you do not have the right to do so. Taking the assets may be theft. You may need to get all of your receipts together to demonstrate where the money went. You will have a problem since you found cash in the hoard. You will not be able to prove the amount you found. Your step siblings may always hold out that it was more than it really was.
