Maltese law as to wills, codicils, and donations was examined, with contention that lex loci domiciliis or lex loci rei site might govern. Dr Micallef supported Malta’s courts treating such wills as valid if executed where appropriate, while Dr Somerville and Dr Stanley urged lex loci domicilis to void the will. The judge refrained from ruling, noting insufficient evidence to invalidate the will and allowing continued intestacy proceedings.

Lodger Question in Reform Act Ruling on Thoms vs Luckett

The King’s Bench addresses two appeals on lodger status for voting under the Reform Act. Thoms, a tenant in a shared house, argued nonresidence by the landlord does not bar his enfranchisement. the court held lack of exclusive outer-door control does not disqualify him. Downing, renting a counting house, contends that shared access and a common key arrangement still fit the act’s tenant definition. the court ruled that such occupation can be treated as a tenant occupying a separately used portion, not a mere lodger. Judgment for appellants.
