Removing Executor (Wills & Trusts)

I am a beneficiary to an estate. There are 8 siblings, beneficiaries and two executors. One executor, sister #1, is considering the removal of the other executor, sister #2. Some of us would like her to proceed, but some of us don't want to be involved. Does executor #1 need everyone’s support to remove executor #2? Or, can she proceed with a probate attorney? Note that there is cause according to estate lawyer to have executor #2 removed. She is not helping the younger sister in her administration capacity and is counterproductive to closing the estate. Also, some charges she already made to estate seem out of line with acting in the best interest of the heirs. Thanks, in advance.
