Does anyone here know of a case where a Will of a person who has been under the Court Of Protection has been dealt with?
I've read some reports where they have not recognised Wills and/or maladministered them, not giving the Will's beneficiaries their legal due.
I'm not asking what they SHOULD do, nor what the procedure is.
I'm not asking about Wills not registered with them, either.
I'm asking what results has anyone seen, or heard of, from a perfectly valid legal will that the Court Of protection has previously accepted prior to the person's death?
Do they allow the Will to be administered or do they become obstructive and end up keeping the person's estate by fudging legal processes etc?
