A personal representative or devisee named in a will, or any other interested person, may, at any time after the death of the testator, petition the court having jurisdiction to have the will proved, whether the will is in the possession of that person or not, or is lost or destroyed, or is beyond the jurisdiction of the State.
2. A personal representative named in a will, though not in possession of the will, may present a petition to the district court having jurisdiction, requesting that the person in possession of the will be required to produce it so that it may be admitted to probate and letters may be issued.
