    Abstract

    ![CDATA[This chapter deals with applications relating to wills and testamentary instruments after probate has been granted. It is primarily concerned with applications for construction of such documents. Therefore considerations as to the validity of testamentary instruments and applications relating to family provision are dealt with elsewhere in this work. Wills often contain provisions relating to trusts. The law of trusts is also dealt with elsewhere in this work. It will often occur that a valid will which has been admitted to probate will need to be construed. This may include an application to the court relating to the powers of the Executor or as to the nature of the interest which a beneficiary may take. Therefore this chapter contains a commentary on the law as it relates to the construction of wills.]]
