Under New York's Surrogate's Court Procedure Act (SCPA), specifically SCPA 1409, the Notice of Probate must be served on all individuals who are named in the Will as beneficiaries. This ensures that these individuals are aware of the probate process and have the opportunity to protect their interests.
