[WSBAPT] Lack of subscribing witness - TEDRAT

[Josh Grant]

I have a old 1967 will, they apparently didn’t do affidavits of subscribing witness in those days at the same time they did the will.

there are two newer codicils, both refer to the original will by date etc.  they both have the affidavits of subscribing witness .  No one in the fam knows the witnesses or what law firm did it.

Is there any authority that says “if a codicil refers to a will, and it has the affidavits of subscribing witness ... that’s good enough”?

Plan B is a TEDRA agreement which says “we authorize the court to consider this a valid LW&T” signed by all heirs...  CAn anyone share with me a TEDRA that says that.

Thanks
Josh
