My father and his one brother and two sisters respond in the court that "when he will submitted the will we will challenged it",
but till 2018 he(my uncle) did not submitted (file)the will in the court, now in 2018,my father(his one brother and two sister) filed an affidavit that the will is forged.
Last week on 25-10-2018,my uncle filed a probate case with original will having signatures of my grandfather and signatures of two witness with afadavit of one witness.
None of us (all the brother and sisters) know the witness.
As per the will all the movable and immovable property are in my uncle name and signatures of my grandfather seems to be genuine and one of the witness also confirm it in afadavit.
Please advise us what should we do...

Dear Sir,

Thanks for your advice,
Yesterday when we asked to our advocate for further action and also about the chances to win the case if we contest the probate on the the grounds :-
1)That my uncle filed the probate case very late that is after 23 years of the death of the testator (my grandfather).
2)That the signatures of testator (my grandfather) are not genuine.

My advocate told me that the chances to win the case are very less(30%),but you(my father and his brothers)do not have any other alternative because your brother will also fight the case on the following grounds:-

1)He is in the possession of the property.
2)Why you all (my father and his brother and sisters) did challenged the will after 23 years of the death of the testator (my grandfather died in 1995) and you all know know that there was a will and had already declares it in 2013 in the court.
3)If the will is not the genuine why you all left the posession of the property.
4)Now it is time bared to contest the will.

Sir my advocate also told to my father and all my uncles, it is not easy to contest the case chances are only 30% only, and an expensive but you do not have any other alternative.

Please guide us should contest the case or surrender it, in favour of my uncle.
We all are in good talking terms(my father and all my uncles) but when we all discuss on this case it ends with no solution.
Regards,

Dear Sir,
I very well know that the signatures on the will are genuine and of the testator and if the handwriting expert will confirm the same,what will be the fate of this case.
My father is 70 year old and the only contestant from our side but my uncle (76 year old) and his whole family (his two sons and three grand sons are there in Haridwar one of his grandson is an Advocate).
Is it expensive to fight.

Should I go to my uncle for compromise or should I fight the case,we are in good talking terms with uncle.

Regards,
Peeyush Kumar.

Dear client there is no time limit to file a probate application . As the partition case i has been filed recently and is pending so they have right to produce will and get probate.If court declares that will is genuine then they will get all the property according to will.

Dear Sir,
I know that the will is genuine and both the witness confirm it.
None of us know the witness therefore only my uncle took five years to search them and found them alive.
Please guide me should I contest the case.
Is there any thing in our favour by which we can contest and win the case.

A.Dear Sir
What your advocate has said is correct. Add that since it was not seen the light for all these years so suspicion arise about its genuinity. Secondly it was never acted upon because it was not bona fide.

A.Dear Client,
You have the right to claim your Ancestral property.
Find out a good Advocate through Vidhikarya.Com if you are not sure of your Advocate at the moment.
You have also the right to choose your Advocate.
This looks bit complicated and one has to see the papers/Wills and other related documents before say anything with regard to the case.
Shanti Ranjan Behera,
Advocate

There are two unknown persons who had signatures as witness and both of them are still alive and confirming that the will is correct and verified.
