| 释义 | `1`Will, Will Or Testament2 `2` "Legal Lexicon": It is a rule that the last will revokes all former wills. It follows then that a man cannot by any testamentary act impose upon himself the inability of making another inconsistent with and revoking the first will. A will voluntarily and intentionally made by a competent testator, according to the form required by law, may be avoided, 1st. By revocation and 2d. By fraud. Among the civilians they have two other kinds of wills, namely: the mystic, which is a will enveloped in a paper and sealed, and the witnesses attest that fact, the other is the olographic; which is wholly written by the testator himself. A document under which a will maker (testator) states his or her intentions regarding: the persons (beneficiaries) who will receive the will maker's property, the person or entity (executor) who will carry out the will maker's wishes, and, if necessary, the person (guardian) who will care for the will maker's minor children; In general, any instrument, executed with the required formalities conferring no present rights but intended to take effect on the death of the maker, which contains his intention respecting the disposition of his property. --b-- |
