Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
Wills/Probate
My father executed a Will in 1996, all typed including the place for the date, after he became ill, the Will was alledgly changed in 1998, eliminating heirs,The document looks strange, the attestation clause is not spaced as the rest of the document and made to fit, it appears so that no additional page was needed, and may have been added after, also the date is handwritten and not in my father handwritting no initals to to confirm, Is the date an interlineation, and would have no effect, and because we can not verifie the date, could the 1996 Will be considered his latest Will.

Re: Wills/Probate
Typing a clause differently does not mean the father did not write it. It sounds like this will simply have to be argued in court as to the validity of the clause. If the court finds it is valid, its in.
