No. 01-1166.

809 So.2d 1185 (2002)

SUCCESSION OF Mary L. AYCOCK.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

February 27, 2002.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Henery R. Liles, Liles & Redd, Lake Charles, LA, for Appellants Debra Harper, Howard Harper, and Mary Dartez.

Scott J. Pias, Lake Charles, LA, for Appellee Fred G. Sanders.

Court composed of SYLVIA R. COOKS, BILLIE COLOMBARO WOODARD, and MICHAEL G. SULLIVAN.


COOKS, Judge.

The Appellants are the named legatees in a will left by the testator, Mary L. Aycock. They appeal a judgment of the trial court declaring her will invalid because she did not date it in her own hand as required by La.Civ.Code art. 1588, which provides the general requirements for executing an olographic will.

For reasons which follow, we reverse the judgment of the trial court and reinstate the original Judgment of Possession.
