The petitioners claim to be legatees under a Will executed by one Rajammal. Rajammal was the widow of V.Gopala Pillai to whom that debt is allegedly due. It is for this debt due to the deceased Gopala Pillai has the succession certificate proceedings been initiated. 2. The petitioners are certainly proper parties if not necessary parties to the proceedings. The question whether the Will relied on is genuine or not can be decided after they are brought on record. There can therefore be no objection in impleading the petitioners as additional respondents in the proceedings for the grant of succession certificate. The right of the respondent to dispute the Will relied on by the petitioners is left open. Ext.P7 order is set aside and I.A.No.1605/2012 in OP (Succession) No.5/2000 is allowed.
The Original Petition is disposed of.
V.CHITAMBARESH, Judge.
