REPROBATION1, eccl. law. The propounding2 exceptions either against facts, persons or things; as, to allege3 that certain deeds or instruments have not been duly and lawfully4 executed; or that certain persons are such that they are incompetent5 as witnesses; or that certain things ought not for legal reasons to be admitted.
REPUBLIC. A commonwealth6; that form of government in which the administration of affairs is open to all the citizens. In another sense, it signifies the state, independently of its form of government. 1 Toull. n. 28, and n. 202, note. In this sense, it is used by Ben Johnson. Those that, by their deeds make it known, whose dignity they do sustain; And life, state, glory, all they gain, Count the Republic's, not their own, Vide Body Politic7; Nation; State.
REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT. A government in the republican form; a government of the people; it is usually put in opposition8 to a monarchical9 or aristocratic government.
2. The fourth section of the fourth article of the constitution, directs that "the United States shall guaranty to every state in the Union a republican form of government." The form of government is to be guarantied, which supposes a form already established, and this is the republican form of government the United States have undertaken to protect. See Story, Const. §1807.
REPUBLICATION. An act done by a testator from which it can be concluded that be intended that an instrument which had been revoked10 by him, should operate as his will; or it is the re-execution of a will by the testator, with a view of giving it full force and effect.
2. The republication is express or implied. It is express when there has been an actual re-execution of it; 1 Ves. 440; 2 Rand. R. 192; 9 John, R. 312; it is implied when, for example, the testator by a codicil11 executed according to the statute12 of frauds, reciting that he had made his will, added, "I hereby ratify13 and confirm my said will, except in the alterations14 after mentioned." Com. R. 381.; 3 Bro. P. C. 85, The will might be at a distance, or not in the power of the testator, and it may be thus republished. 1 Ves. 437; 3 Bing. 614; 1 Ves. jr. 486; 4 Bro. C. C. 2.
3. The republication of a will has the effect; 1st. To give it all the force of a will made at the time of the republication; if, for example, a testator by his will devise "all his lands in A," then revokes15 his will, and afterwards buys other lands in A, the republication, made after the purchase, will pass all the testator's lands in A. Cro. Eliz. 493. See 1 P. Wms. 275. 2d. It sets up a will which had been revoked. See, generally, 2 Hill. Ab. 509; 3 Lomax, Dig. tit. 28, c. 6; 2 Bouv. Inst. n. 216 4.
