§ 108. How proved, when uncontested

If a person does not appear to contest the allowance of a will at the time appointed, the court may allow the will on the testimony of only one of the subscribing witnesses, if the witness testifies that the will was executed as provided in chapter 1 of this title. If the allowance of the instrument is consented to in writing by the surviving spouse of the deceased, if any, and by all the heirs at law and next of kin, it may be allowed without testimony. (Amended 1985, No. 144 (Adj. Sess.), § 18.)
