Validity of wills
If a will has been probated and then a second valid will, with a more recent date, is discovered, what process is necessary to have the first will overturned and the provisions of the 2nd will put in place?

Re: Validity of wills
It may be possible to have the second will probated.
A variety of factors, including whether the first probate has closed and, if so, how long ago, would have to be taken into account. But the "last will" is the one that should be followed.
