Will authenticity

This query is : Resolved
Further to my earlier question, please advise how to ensure if the will written 23 years ago was the last will and the deceased never made another will or revised the will ever after the first one. In other words, how to find out if the deceased made another will or modified the will in the last 23 years.

If any one has any other will written thereafter has to come forward and produce the same. That is the only way in which one can say whether there was any other will or that will written 23 years ago was the last will.

You are simply asking the question about 23 year old will. You have not really revealed any fact situation in case, nor discussed / raised any query about the real situation.

I agree with the expert advise of Mr. Anirudh.
I would like to add to it that although it is too late, apply for probate of will, wherein it would be published in newspaper and the beneficiary of the will (if any) shall file objection and/or produce will, if any.

Certainly, I should be more explicit. The person died recently and one of the beneficiary who had possession of the will disclosed the contents of the will that was written 23 years ago. There are circumstances which point to that the deceased might have changed his mind and modified the will or made another will in the last 5-10 years. Is there any way other heirs can contest that there could be another will from some sort of records, if any.

First of all, Mr RK, you should continue the query in the same thread instead of posting a new one.
Expert Mr.Anirudh has clearly replied to your doubt. Why do you entertain doubts about change of mind and execution of another new will by the testator who is demised? If such will is there, the beneficiary will come out for taking over the properties. In what way you are related to the query/property?

File probate application in the civil court of jurisdiction and thereafter make two paper publication in two local news papers stating that you along with other beneficiaries of the will filed a probate application in the court relating to estate of.........(since deceased) so if any body has any objection to it he may visit (your advocate's name , address and time)with his claim if any relating to the goods and assets of late........... which were devolved upon the beneficiaries of the said will within seven days from the date of publication failing which the beneficiaries will presume that the goods and assets contained in the will is free of any charges, claim or any other encumbrances whatsoever and in that event no claim will be entertained thereafter.
