Executor - how to 'oblige' parties to hand over info and items?

As there is a superseded will, one wonders if the family members may consider challenging the new will just to cause problems.
If the items the family members allegedly took were of little value why did they bother? And if they were estranged from the deceased, how did they get the keys to the house?

Yes, they will likely try - but not on the basis of that earlier will, which the holding solicitor acknowledges has been superceded. But that's going in to detail that isn't relevant here.

Ditto with how entry was gained - it was via a key-holder, who thought they were doing the right thing. And 'little value' is all relative. (See what i did there... :-( )

I think I have the info required, thanks, and will pass it on.

Might be an idea to change the locks, if not already done ...
