Although the attesting witnesses failed to state in the will that they were present together when the testator signed as required by s11(4)(b) Wills Act 2007, their affidavits established the omission was an oversight and the document clearly expressed the testator's testamentary intentions; accordingly the Court validated the will under s14(1) and s14(2) and ordered costs to be paid by the estate.
