A will apparently executed in 2012 by John Payne, leaving most of his estate to his son by his first marriage, has been overturned on the grounds that the attesting witnesses' evidence was unreliable. The England and Wales Court of Appeal instead admitted to probate an earlier will leaving everything to Payne's second wife, despite significant doubts about that will's execution and attestation, too.

The italian Notary

Since 12 September 2002, the Consiglio Nazionale del Notariato has been registered in the public list of certifiers of digital signatures held by AIPA, as the certification authority for Italian notaries. The digital signatures of Italian notaries may be verified on the site http://ca.notariato.it. Based on the rules and the certification authority's operations manual, CNN certifies notaries' digital signatures in the exercise of their functions and so guarantees to third parties not only

Comme nous avons abordé des sujets qui intéressent aussi l’optique du vendeur, il est opportun de ce point de vue de rappeler que la taxe INVIM si onéreuse (une taxe imposée à l’origine au vendeur à la suite de la cession d’un bien immobilier) a été abolie définitivement, un énorme double soulagement pour le notaire aussi, non seulement à cause de la complexité de son calcul, mais aussi (comme toujours) à cause du rôle si lourd de percepteur que la loi lui imposait. Ceci n’empêche q

In "land credit" contracts, the borrower has the legally-assured option of early repayment of the home loan; but generally, even in ordinary contracts, that possibility is foreseen. The borrower may decide, therefore, at a certain point in the repayment plan, to close out the contract and repay the remaining capital, on which obviously he will no longer pay interest. Given this loss of earnings, the bank could, if the contract so stipulates, demand compensation (a penalty). According to a

Dans les contrats de "crédit foncier", la loi offre à l’emprunteur la possibilité de rembourser le prêt en avance; en général cependant, les contrats de droit ordinaire aussi prévoient cette faculté. Arrivé à un certain moment de l’amortissement, l’emprunteur peut donc décider de mettre fin au contrat en restituant le capital qu’il doit encore et sur lequel bien entendu il ne paiera plus d’intérêts. À cause de ce manque à gagner, la banque pouvait, si le contrat le prévoyait, demander une

A person may not always be able to express his intentions directly: for example, because he is abroad or far from the place in which he is supposed to sign a particular deed or contract.In such cases, it is possible to use a power of attorney, i.e. a document giving another person the power to undertake a material or legal act in one's stead.For example, if a husband is abroad and a purchase contract for a house must be signed urgently, the husband – before he leaves or from abroad – may give hi

When does one need a notary?

Quand doit-on avoir recours à un notaire ? Les domaines d’intervention du notaire italien concernent principalement: a) l’acquisition d’un logis ou d’autres biens immobiliers; b) la formalisation d’un contrat de crédit avec une banque; c) la préparation de procurations qui donnent à un tiers la faculté de nous représenter; d) la modification des relations patrimoniales entre conjoints; e) la demande à un juge d’autorisations concernant les enfants mineurs; f) la donation

The conveyance may rightly be considered the notarial transaction par excellence, considering all the actions the law imposes on the notary following settlement (to cite the more important ones: filing, cadastral registration, transcription, notification of the competent authorities specified by law etc.). It is the notary who writes the contract after having established the intentions of the parties and after having obtained all useful information and carried out all the necessary search

If a married person wishes to sell a property, it is necessary to check whether or not the consent of the other spouse is needed; If a minor or a person not of sound mind is the owner of an asset, a judge's authorization is needed for the sale as well as the intervention of that person's tutor or parent or legal representative; the same thing applies for a purchase by such persons; If an inherited asset is the common property of several heirs, before selling his share an heir must firs

- Si un conjoint veut vendre un bien immobilier, il faudra s’assurer si le consentement de l’autre conjoint est requis ou non (voir "Cas particuliers"); - si une personne mineure ou interdite est propriétaire d’un bien, l’autorisation à la vente prononcée par un juge est nécessaire, de même que l’intervention de son tuteur ou du parent ou du représentant légal; ces mêmes conditions valent pour les acquisitions effectuées par eux; - si le bien constituant l’héritage est en communauté en

Only legal security in business and private relationships allow for economic development; therefore a constitutional state must guarantee  legal security to its citizens. To this goal: 1) lawsuits  must be prevented, for as much as possible; 2) the citizens must have access  to public registers whose records are reliable and legally trustworthy. Clearly the reliability of the findings depends entirely upon the trustworthiness of the deeds entered. An authentic deed, drawn by a

Les lois qui réglementent la société en commandite simple sont de maints point de vue analogues à celles qui s’appliquent aux sociétés simples.  Nous vous renvoyons par conséquent au paragraphe s'y réferent.De plus, pour ce qui est des modifications subjectives à la suite du transfert de la part sociale, il faut distinguer entre les quote-parts des associés commandités et celles des commanditaires.Prenons le cas où un des associés commandités aurait l’intention de transférer sa part de participa

Limited partnerships with share capital is a modified form of a company with share capital in which permanent directors manage the company who have unlimited liability, also contingent liability, for  social security liabilities. The provisions that are specific for this type of company are reduced to a few which concern above all the management of the company by the unlimited partners.    The peculiar characteristic of this type of company consists in the co-existence of two different group

The relationship between a partner and the company ends automatically when the partner dies. Within six months from his death, the surviving partners have the duty of returning the share held by the dead partner to his heirs. The surviving partners are not obliged to accept that the heirs of the deceased member should succeed him by taking his place in the company.The surviving partners have two options they can choose from. They may either decide:- to wind up the company in advance;- to car
