probate

[anniekay]

was told to inherit from relative in uk upon proof of others within the family. this has been going on for 2 years through geneoalogist ,supposedly, prooving who is whom. they have recieved antiquity papers along with all other proofs of lineage. probate has been temporarily closed due to this.
Since being an proven heir, do I have the right to see probate papers on this probate . I live in another country and have concerns over the way this is going with these geneaologist.

No you don't have any special rights as an heir.

One probate has been granted, anyone, anywhere in the world is entitled to a copy of it if they pay - it then becomes a public document.

I did not ask if I had (special rights) . I am qiute well off myself and am not after money , or chattles. My concern is for the wellfare of others. These gentlemen have sent paperwork contrary to what this person held in their lifetime as well as having told others conflicting information. I knew this person, and have concerns over what is going on here.
I appreciate your answering my question D, but , snippets are not required.
thank you

To quote you twice:

I did not ask if I had (special rights) .

With respect, it seems to me that that is precisely what you did ask, and the only question you asked. The rest was background as to why you were asking.

If you have concerns you (or your lawyer) should raise them with the executors of the estate - they are the ones ultimately responsible for what happens.
