Admittedly, a suit for partition filed by the petitioners’ mother is pending in O.S.No.432 of 2020 where the 2nd and 3rd respondents also parties to the suit. If at all if there is any Will with regard to the subject properties, since the subject properties are already subject to partition in the above suit, the 2nd and 3rd respondents are supposed to have produced the Will before the civil Court and make a claim and prove that the Will is valid. According to the petitioners, no such Will is produced. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
