COMMENT: O.C.G.A. § 31-32-5 provides for both written and unwritten revocations
of living wills, without regard to the mental state or competency of the declarant at the
time of revocation. Although the statute does not require a witness to a revocation of a
living will, if the circumstances permit, it would be the better practice to secure a witness.
Acts 1987, p. 322, effective April 2, 1987, added to this code section the requirement
that the intent to revoke a living will, as opposed to a testamentary will, must be clearly
expressed.
