公证遗嘱法律保护的若干问题探讨

Issues Concerning Legal Protection of Notarial Will

公证遗嘱在司法实践中由于欠缺程序要件及不能排除合理怀疑而被宣布无效。因此,为了维护公证机构的权威性及公证遗嘱的公信力,公证机构应强化对公证事项的形式审查及实质审查,同时还要完善公证遗嘱立法,切实维护公证市场秩序,保障公证遗嘱目的的实现。

Notarial will is often announced invalid in judicial practice for lack of procedural elements and for the incapability to remove reasonable doubt. Therefore, notarial organs should strengthen examination on notarial items both in form and in essence so as to maintain authoritativeness of notarial organs and public credit rating of notarial will. Besides, legislation in notarial will should be improved and notarial market order should be maintained to ensure the realization of the purpose of notarial will.
