If there is fake will then challenge it by contesting the case burden lies on the plaintiff to prove that will is not fake and equal burden lies on the defendants to prove that will is fake one.
If he is party to the suit and not yet summons is served on him it is the duty of the plaintiff to take necessary steps.
