The holographic will has often generated judicial issues: from its potential forgery, to its invalidation, from the interpretation of unclear clauses, to the overlapping of other subsequent testamentary dispositions which modify the previous ones. An example is the controversy which arose over the holographic will of a well-known painter, Giuseppe Augusto Levis, belonging to one of the most distinguished Piedmontese families and owner of considerable assets. The lawsuit was filed in 1947 at the Court of Turin; the judge-rapporteur was Alessandro Galante Garrone. Renowned lawyers and a well-known magistrate, later bound to have a crucial role in the academic world as well, found themselves having to face a peculiar issue with complex implications.

Abstract

The holographic will has often generated judicial issues: from its potential forgery, to its invalidation, from the interpretation of unclear clauses, to the overlapping of other subsequent testamentary dispositions which modify the previous ones. An example is the controversy which arose over the holographic will of a well-known painter, Giuseppe Augusto Levis, belonging to one of the most distinguished Piedmontese families and owner of considerable assets. The lawsuit was filed in 1947 at the Court of Turin; the judge-rapporteur was Alessandro Galante Garrone. Renowned lawyers and a well-known magistrate, later bound to have a crucial role in the academic world as well, found themselves having to face a peculiar issue with complex implications.
