Sec.57 and 213 of INDIAN SUCCESSION ACT - in A.P. No probate is necessary for joining as legal heir under Will - Trial court dismissed the I.A. - their lordships held that 1) It is not necessary for the executor or legatee of a Will to obtain Probates of the Wills in the State of Andhra Pradesh (Also in the Telangana State after its formation). (2) For considering an application to come on record as the legal representative of a deceased party, the Court need not undertake a roving enquiry on the validity of the Will(s). A summary enquiry into the claim of execution of the Wills is enough for the Courts to permit a person who claims to be the legal representative of the deceased party to come on record for the limited purpose of continuing the proceedings. (3) The burden lies on the executant or legatee to prove the Will(s) propounded by him in the suit or final decree or other proceedings, as the case may be, as per the provisions of Chapter V of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, if he asserts any right over the property of the party based on the Will(s) after his coming on record. The Civil Revision Petition is accordingly allowed - 2015 A.P.(2014)msklawreports
