[WSBAPT] Compelling Sister to give copy of Will?

[burchettlaw at yahoo.com]

Hi All:

I have a client whose sister (the executor) is refusing to give him a copy of the Will.  Apparently the local court house also does not have a copy.  I am not sure if my client is even in the Will, but he seems to believe that he is in the Will as his deceased Mother has told him that property/assets are to be split evenly between him and his sister when she passes.  My client also said that he has received some money from his sister from some of his Mother's proceeds, but she is refusing to give him a copy of the Will.   

Have anyone ever encounter this type of situation and any advice on how to compel the sister to provide a copy of the Will? 

Best,
