Quick Summary

Generally, anyone with a direct or indirect interest affected by a will can challenge it, regardless of family ties. This includes individuals who stand to gain or lose based on the will's validity. The key is having a legitimate claim or dispute related to the deceased's property.

Yes. A Will can be challenged by any person if the executor of the Will died.

A Will can be challenged in a court only by a person who raises a claim in his favour as per the Will. Whether he belongs to the family or not is not a material thing.

Unless he has a dispute with someone who makes a claim as per the Will, he cannot challenge the Will.
