1. What would happen if a will cannot be found after the death of the testator even though a copy is available? This is what this case is about. Unfortunately, it takes those interested in the estate of Lioe Ka Khie [“the Deceased”] more than two decades to find out the answer. I hasten to say this is not meant to be a criticism of any person. The probate action was only commenced in 2005. Prior to that, various efforts had been made to try to resolve the matter amicably but without success.
