Prior to the admission of a will to probate,

made for vexation or delay may be filed in the court having jurisdiction
over the probate of the will by any interested person. No notice of the
filing of such objection need be given. The clerk shall note such filing
of an objection in the estate docket and copy such objections in the will

impounded by the clerk, copied in the will record, and its probate
continued for thirty (30) days. If an action to resist the probate of such
will is not commenced within thirty (30) days, such will may be
admitted to probate without notice.
