disposing mind and memory

Primary tabs

Disposing mind and memory (also referred to as sound mind and memory) is a requirement that a person must understand the state of their property, relationships, and the facets of a will in order for a will to be valid. A person must overcome the assumption that they were of disposing mind and memory in order to invalidate a will on these grounds.
