Matter Related To Will.........
18-Jun-2023 (In Civil Law)
What will happen if one of the witness in will died before the testator? And what will be the procedure in court?
This is my response to you:
1. As per section 69 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, the Will has to be proved by proving the signature of the testator as well as that of at least one attesting witnesses;
2. Though the process will be cumbersome, it is not impossible;
3. Consult a local lawyer and take steps.

The matter will proceed with the One balance witness and the Probate shall be granted. the Xourt cannot take an adverse view of the document, unless something specifically contrary is available on record by waybof an objection or a suit being filed to oppose the same.
