Execution of a will

(Querist) 04 July 2013 This query is : Resolved 
Dear Sir/Madam,

The executor of the will is refusing to execute and is also refusing to sign the relinquishment. Meanwhile, the movable properties in the will have been used. What should be done now? Can the will be discredited?

All of first a notice should be served upon
the executor(s)to act within a time and when he does not respond a LOA can be applied for.
The Court shall decline to grant LOA unless it is satisfied that executor(s) have renounced otherwise court shall issue citation to executors(see S.229 of ISA 1925)
