the Estate of ADELAIDE JOSEPHINE LARKING [2023] NZHC 2786
- Citation
- [2023] NZHC 2786
- Court
- High Court
The Court declared the will valid under s14 because the evidence (including Family Court approval and the document itself) established the deceased's testamentary intentions, and the sole defect of having only one witness did not prevent validation; the application could proceed without notice and costs were ordered against the estate.
