§ 84-143. Gift to witness void - Exception.  


Latest version.
  • All beneficial devises, legacies or gifts whatever, made or given in any will to a subscribing witness thereto, are void unless there are two other competent subscribing witnesses to the same; but a mere charge on the estate of the testator for the payment of debts does not prevent his creditors from being competent witnesses to the will.  R.L. 1910, Sec. 8377.
