Rights to do what? You certainly have a "right" to inherit if you are mentioned in the Will.

If your sister and aunt were named Executors you have no rights in that regard.

Then you have a right to inherit. Is that the question?

I believe OP wants to know if the will, which appoints sister and aunt as personal representatives (or executrices), is somehow invalid because they witnessed it.
