Giving warning

To give warning you need to:

1. Request a form from the Leeds District Probate Registry.

2. Fill in the form and say why you’re entitled to apply for probate. This is known as stating your ‘interest’ in the estate.

3. Send the form back to Leeds District Probate Registry. The completed warning form will be recorded, dated, stamped with the court stamp and returned to you.

4. Make a copy of the warning to keep.

5. Send or give the warning to the person who entered the caveat. Keep a record of how and when the warning was given, for example, by hand or by post. You cannot give a warning by email.
