It is my understanding that it is NOT compulsory for a testastor to appoint an executor for the will of his estate. I have seen in many cases that when there is a will, though there is no executor appointed, the legatees get a letter of administration by the courts. I want to know in which cases it is either compulsory or advisable for the testator to appoint an executor for his will.please enlighten me about the advantages and disadvantages of of appointing an executor of will. If possible, pl cite the relevent sections of I.S. Act
