A testator is a person who has written and executed a last will and testament that is in effect at the time of his/her death. It is any "person who makes a will."〔Gordon Brown, ''Administration of Wills, Trusts, and Estates'', 3d ed. (2003), p. 556. ISBN 0-7668-5281-4.〕 ==Related terms== * A female testator is sometimes referred to as a testatrix, particularly in older cases.〔 *In Ahmadiyya Islam, a testator is referred to as a moosi, who is someone that has signed up for Wasiyyat or a will, under the plan initiated by the Promised Messiah, thus committing a portion, not less than one-tenth, of his lifetime earnings and any property to a cause. * The adjectival form of the word is testamentary, as in: # Testamentary capacity, or mental capacity or ability to execute a will and # Testamentary disposition, or gift made in a will (see that article for types). * A will is also known as a last will and testament. * Testacy means the status of being testate, that is, having executed a will. The property of such a person goes through the probate process. * Intestacy means the status of ''not'' having made a will, or to have died ''without'' a valid will. The estate of a person who dies intestate, undergoes administration, rather than probate. * The attestation clause of a will is where the witnesses to a will attest to certain facts concerning the making of the will by the testator, and where they sign their names as witnesses. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「testator」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
