1. If the will of a person is detained
beyond the jurisdiction of the State, in a court of any other state, country or
jurisdiction, and cannot be produced for probate in this State, a copy of the
will may be admitted to probate in this State in lieu thereof and has the same
force and effect as would be required if the original will were produced.
2. Unless otherwise ordered by the court,
a subscribing witness may testify in person, by deposition or by affidavit with
respect to a copy of the executed will, and with respect to the handwriting of
the affiant as a witness, or the handwriting of the testator or another
witness, in the same way as he or she would if the original will were
available.
