What does Brevia Testata mean in American Law?
The definition of Brevia Testata in the law of the United States, as defined by the lexicographer Arthur Leff in his legal dictionary is:
Written memoranda listing the names of witnesses to an oral grant (which might be accompanied by transfer of a written deed, with which the memorandum was associated), so as to decrease later disputes about the making of the grant. The witnesses did not themselves sign. (Blackstone theorizes that many of them could not write, but it is also possible that they did not want to be mistaken for warrantors.)
