What is the procedure to get a succession certificate in Bareilly under the state court procedure rules?

Detailed Legal Analysis

A succession certificate for the debts and securities of a deceased person in Bareilly is granted by the District Judge under the procedure laid down in the Code of Civil Procedure and adapted by Uttar Pradesh Rent Control Act 1972. You must file a petition with the death certificate, the list of assets and debts, the consent or no-objection of other legal heirs, and the prescribed court fee on the value of the estate.

The Allahabad High Court has held that the court must issue notice to all close relatives and to the debtors of the deceased, and that objections, if any, must be adjudicated before grant. After the certificate is granted, you must furnish an indemnity and security to the court as required under Uttar Pradesh Rent Control Act 1972 before the certificate becomes effective.

Engage a lawyer to prepare the petition, as any defect in the list of heirs or the valuation will delay the grant and increase the court fee.
