A judge in Australia ruled that a 75-year-old man had died without a will after the names of his beneficiaries were obscured by black ink on the document, according to a recent court filing.
The will was the original that was prepared by Thomas' law firm in 2011, but the names of the beneficiaries were"largely blanked out by black ink applied by hand" in two key clauses, according to the court document. "The markings effectively obliterate the names of the executors and beneficiaries, on its face stripping the will of its essential elements," he said.
"Although it is barely possible to discern the Nightingale's names under the ink, the effect of the markings is in the nature of redactions executed by hand to the typed text of the will," Moore ruled. There were no other markets or alterations to the will.
