Republication Alternative Definition
An act done by a testator, from which it can be concluded that he intended that an instrument which had been revoked by him should operate as his will; or it is the re-execution of a will by the testator, with a view of giving it full force and effect. The republication is express when there has been an actual re-execution of it (1 Ves. Jr. 440; 2 Rand. [Va.] 192; 9 Johns. [N. Y.] 312) ; it is implied when, for example, the testator by a codicil executed according to the statute of frauds, reciting that he had made his will, added, “I hereby ratify and confirm my said will, except in the alterations after mentioned” (3 Brown, Pari. Gas. 85). The will might be at a distance, or not in the power of the testator, and it may be thus republished. 1 Ves. Sr. 437; 3 Bing. 614; 1 Ves. Jr. 486; 4 Brown, Ch. 2.
