FORMAL TESTACY PROCEEDINGS -- CONTESTED CASES -- TESTIMONY OF
ATTESTING WITNESSES. (a) If evidence concerning execution of an attested will
which is not self-proved is necessary in contested cases, the testimony of at
least one (1) of the attesting witnesses, if within the state competent and
able to testify, is required. Due execution of an attested or unattested will
may be proved by other evidence.
(b) If the will is self-proved, compliance with signature requirements
for execution is conclusively presumed and other requirements of execution are
presumed subject to rebuttal without the testimony of any witness upon filing
the will and the acknowledgment and affidavits annexed or attached thereto,
unless there is proof of fraud or forgery.
