This query is : Resolved
My Mother made a will in 2004 died in 2010
Will made in Mumbai. Property also in Mumbai. Executor of will who is also a part beneficiary of the will is not Probating Will citing amendment to Indian succession Act 26 of 2002 that will of Christians does not need Probate. As to my knowledge if the executor is named in the Will, he has to get the Will probated as it is mandatory u/s 213.also as per sec 222 Probate can be granted only to the Executor appointed under the Will The Executor fails till date to distribute the property in accordance with the provisions of the will. he has not even distributed the Jewellery which does not have a schedule as mentioned in Will to the beneficiaries
many parts of the will are void as per S89
of IS Act,in above circumstances
My question is does Will made in Mumbai need to be compulsory Probated
and if Executor does not do so what are the remedies ?
