Hi all I am trying to focus on the succession act and my brain just wont work especially looking at the past problem quesions on this area. If someone could answer my query that would be great.
-Firstly if a gift fails under a will either because it is for the benefit of a witness or the beneficiary has predeceased the testator (subject to s.97 and s.98) then it falls to be distributed either by a residuary clause if one exists or under rules of partial intestacy? -If however a person makes a valid will and then executes a codicil making a further gift (without revoking will) but the codicil does not comply with formalitie, is the rule that the codicil is invalid but the original will remails intact. Therefore it is a case of testacy as the original will accounted for all the propoerty? A mouthful I know! I thought I knew this area but looking at the problem questions has thrown me. Any help would be greatly appreciated --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FE-1 Study Group" group.
