The reappeal is dismissed.

As to the grounds of reappeal:

In the event that a testator makes a will by means of an instrument of acceptance due to disease, the provisions of Article 1070(2) of the Civil Act, which require the witness or interested person to request the court to approve the will within seven days from the date on which the urgent reason ceases to exist, is a procedure to confirm that the above will comes out of the truth of the testator, and if there is no obstacle to obtaining the approval seal of the court, the approval seal shall be obtained within the prescribed period. Furthermore, if the testator makes the will by means of an instrument of acceptance due to disease, unless there are any special circumstances, it shall be deemed that the urgent reason ceases to exist on the date of the will, and therefore, it shall be deemed that the testator apply for the approval seal to the court within seven days from the date of the will, and it is proper to determine that the application for approval which was filed after the above period is not dismissed as illegal (see Supreme Court Order 86S18, Oct. 11, 1986).

Therefore, this reappeal is dismissed, and it is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating judges.
