My mom passed in 24 and her estate is in probate. How do I avoid paying her taxes until we are not in probate?

Can you clarify what you mean?  You will have to file her Final Individual tax return, and f there is an estate, it would have to file taxes based on its calendar year.  There really is not way to delay paying the taxes.
