Probate Records
An olographic testament is one entirely written, dated,
and signed in the handwriting of the testator. The
olographic testament is subject to no other requirement as
to form. The signature may appear anywhere in the testament
and is sufficient if it identifies the testator and
evidences an intent by the testator to adopt the document as
the testator's testament. The date may appear anywhere in
the testament, may be clarified by extrinsic evidence, and
is sufficient if it resolves those controversies for which
the date is relevant. Additions and deletions on the
testament made after the execution of the testament may be
given effect only if made by the hand of the testator and
need not comply with the formalities for the execution of a
will or the revocation of a legacy.
