The court was satisfied the handwritten 4 March 2009 document came into existence in New Zealand, expressed the deceased's testamentary intentions, named an executor and bore the deceased's signature and a statement of no coercion; accordingly the court exercised its power under s 14 of the Wills Act 2007 to declare the document a valid will notwithstanding non-compliance with s 11(4).
