1Opinion of the Court
COVINGTON, Judge.
This is an appeal from a judgment decreeing the last will and testament of Melvin L. Augustus executed before Daisy B. Ransom, Notary Public, on March 10, 1978, in Washington, D.C., null and void for lack of required testamentary form. Lillian Thompson, decedent’s daughter from his first marriage, sought to annul and set aside the probate of a testament dated October 21, 1967, alleging that it was revoked by the 1978 testament. The validity of the 1967 will had been previously challenged and upheld in Succession of Augustus, 400 So.2d 1172 (La.App. 1st Cir.1981).
