e citation provided in Section 1613 of this Title shall be served in the manner provided by law for service of a summons in a civil action, and proceedings thereunder shall be had as in the case of a contest before probate under the provisions of Subchapter A of this Chapter. If the will was originally admitted to probate, and letters testamentary or letters of administration with the will annexed were originally granted without a contest under the provisions of Subchapter A of this Chapter, a trial must be had, as in the case of a contest before probate. If the Superior Court of Guam decides upon such trial that the will is invalid or is not the last will of the testator, the probate shall be revoked. Thereupon the letters of the executor or of the administrator with the will annexed shall be revoked; but such executor or administrator with the will annexed shall not be liable for any act done in good faith prior to such revocation.
