A person who intrudes and intermeddles with the estate of a testator or intestate without having been appointed an executor or without having obtained letters of administration from a competent court, makes him(sic) liable as an executor "de son tort"(there being no term administrator "de son tort"). The slightest intermeddling with the assets in such a way as to signify an assumption of authority or an intention to assume the functions of an executor may make a person an executor "de son tort"....(Anger & Honsberger, Canadian Law of Real Property, 1959, p. 276)  1, record 1, English, - intermeddling

The propounder of a will must prove by a preponderance of evidence that a testator was competent in every respect, and this includes negativing the existence of any insane delusions. On consideration of all the evidence and in the light of dealing with an otherwise thoroughly competent testator, the trial judge rejected the contention that a delusion existed. He found that the testator really believed the son to be legitimate, even though he expressed doubt. [1971] S. C. R., p. 847)  1, record 2, English, - competent%20testator
