Terms Used In 15 Guam Code Ann. § 635

  • Legatee: A beneficiary of a decedent
  • Probate: Proving a will
  • Remainder: An interest in property that takes effect in the future at a specified time or after the occurrence of some event, such as the death of a life tenant.
  • Testator: A male person who leaves a will at death.
The death of a devisee or legatee of a limited interest before the testator‘s death does not defeat the interest of persons in remainder who survive the testator.
