Section 259 Indian Succession Act | No Fresh Citation Required for Letters of Administration De-Bonis-Non After Probate with Notice to Heirs : Bombay HC
Bombay High Court rules that once probate is granted with proper notice to all heirs and caveats are withdrawn, subsequent Letters of Administration De-Bonis-Non under Section 259 of the Indian Succession Act do not require fresh citation. The judgment reinforces the finality of probate proceedings and reduces procedural burdens for legal representatives dealing with unadministered estates.
