What happens if a will is not self-proving?
Before probate can be conducted, you must locate the attesting witness/witnesses to the will and then have the attesting witness/witnesses either complete a deposition to be submitted to the probate clerk or have the attesting witness/witnesses appear in person before the probate clerk to prove the will. After the will has been proven by the witness / witnesses, the probate clerk makes the final ruling to admit the will to probate.
