Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A nuncupative will, also known as an oral or deathbed will, is a will that is spoken aloud by the testator and witnessed by at least two witnesses. However, in most states, nuncupative wills are only recognized under limited circumstances, such as when the testator is in active military duty or at sea, and they are not typically recognized for situations like the one described in the scenario. Additionally, in this scenario, the question states that Ivan "states orally how he wants his estate distributed," but it does not mention whether or not there were witnesses present, which is a key requirement for a nuncupative will to be considered valid. Therefore, the best answer is B) A nuncupative will.
