  • Help with clarifying wording of grant of probate

    The grant of probate is worded:-


    THE HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE The District Probate Registry at Newcastle Upon Tyne BE IT KNOWN that Name of the deceased, date of death etc.


    AND BE IT FURTHER KNOWN that the last Will and Testament of the said deceased (a copy of which is annexed) was proved and registered in the High Court of Justice and that Administration of all the estate which by law devolves to and vests in the personal representative of the said deceased was granted by the said Court on this date to


    The document then gives the name and address of my sibling who was a beneficiary but has also now been given the title of personal representative.



    for the use and benefit of named Executor 1 and named Executor 2 limited until further representation be granted.


    Am I correct in thinking that the actual Executors are still Exc 1 and Exc 2 and can therefore override any decisions made by the personal representative if neccesary?

    I believe that your understanding is correct, but a simple call to the Probate office with that question should confirm this. Other members on this Forum can confirm or correct this, but call them tomorrow.
