[La] vérification [du testament] peut être demandée par tout intéressé, sans même qu'il soit nécessaire d'appeler l'héritier. Il s'agit d'une procédure non contentieuse, en ce sens qu'elle ne met pas d'obstacle à ce que le testament soit ultérieurement contesté quant à sa validité au fond. 1, record 1, French, - demander%20la%20v%C3%A9rification%20d%27un%20testament
