Does the computer-printed will have legal effect?
Q: Lin Jie lost his husband in his early years and had two sons and one daughter. Lin Jie has been living with her daughter Zhang Xia. Lin Jie wrote a will in early 2003, and then asked someone to print it out by computer. Lin Jie's name and the time of making the will are printed on the will, but there is no Lin Jie's autograph. In the will, the eldest son Zhang Daocheng and the second son Zhang Daomiao inherited half of the six buildings respectively. The bank deposit is more than 2 1 000 yuan with interest, and all the gold and silver jewelry, jewelry and daily necessities are inherited by her daughter Zhang Xia. In August 2003, Lin Jie died. Zhang Xia withdrew more than 2 1 000 yuan and transferred it with interest according to his mother's will. Her eldest brother Zhang Daocheng and second brother Zhang Daomiao brought a lawsuit to the people's court on the grounds that her mother's will was printed by computer and had no legal effect, so Zhang Xia could not own the deposit alone. Excuse me: Is computer printing of wills in Zhang Xia protected by law?

This printed will should be invalid. In the absence of other sufficient evidence, computer-printed wills in Zhang Xia are not protected by law.

Article 17 of the Inheritance Law stipulates: "A self-written will is written by the testator, signed and marked with the year, month and day." Judging from your letter, Lin Jie's will should have been written by himself. As long as the will is signed by Lin Jie and the specific time is indicated, it has legal effect. And Zhang Xia's computer-printed will, we can think of it as similar to the will of writing a book. According to the third paragraph of Article 17 of the Inheritance Law: "When an agent writes a will, it shall be witnessed by more than two witnesses, and one of them shall write the book on his behalf, indicating the year, month and day, and shall be signed by the agent, other witnesses and the testator". However, Zhang Xia's computer-printed will lacks the autographs of computer typists, other witnesses and testators, which does not meet the statutory form requirements of the will, so it should be invalid. However, if Lin Jie still holds the manuscript written by his mother, and has her signature, and indicates the year, month and day, she can use the contents of this self-written will to divide her inheritance.
