Legal prosecution over forged will case at the Old Bailey
The prosecution led by Mr Erskine outlines a conspiracy among Benjamin Mendes Henriques Joseph Meyers and others to back a forged will of Aaron De Sylva. Defendants allegedly swore to a will that did not exist to influence the administration of De Sylva’s estate. Evidence details contradictions in affidavits and testimony from witnesses, with De Sylva and his supposed heirs central to the dispute. The January 1793 murder of Aaron De Sylva and the subsequent inquiries are tied to the alleged plot to mislead the Commons proceedings.
