Ölümle kişilik sona erer fakat ölen kişinin malvarlığı mevcudiyetini sürdürür. Ölen kişinin malvarlığının akıbetinin ne olacağı,

bu konuda murisin bir özgürlüğe sahip olup olmadığı, böyle bir özgürlüğü var ise, bunu nasıl kullanacağı yanıtlanması

gereken sorulardır. Modern hukuk sistemleri, ölümünden sonra malvarlığının nasıl dağıtılacağı hususunda murise kısmen

ya da tamamen özgürlük tanımaktadır. Bu özgürlüğün nasıl kullanılacağı, yani irade beyanının hangi forma girmesi gerektiği

hususunda ise, hukuk sistemleri farklılaşmaktadır. İnceleme konumuz olan elektronik vasiyetnamede ise, bu farklılaşmanın

ortadan kalktığını söyleyebiliriz. Çünkü hukuk sistemlerinin neredeyse hiçbirisinde elektronik vasiyetnameye ilişkin yasal

bir düzenleme bulunmamaktadır ve bu durum hepsini ortak bir paydada buluşturmaktadır. Yasal bir düzenlemeye sahip

olmamasına rağmen, elektronik vasiyetnameye ilişkin hukuki ihtilaflardaki artış, konunun incelemeye muhtaç olduğunu

göstermektedir. İşte bu sebeple, elektronik vasiyetname inceleme konusu olarak tercih edilmiş ve böylelikle elektronik

vasiyetnamenin tanıtılması gayesi güdülmüştür. Bu amaçla öncelikle elektronik vasiyetnameye ilişkin düzenleme, tasarı ve

yargı kararları incelenmiştir. Bunun ardından, meseleye Türk hukuku açısından yaklaşılmış ve elektronik vasiyetnamenin

geçerli olup olmayacağı sorusuna yanıt aranmıştır.

Electronic Will

When the existence of a personality ends with death, the assets of the deceased continue to exist. In such a case, what

should be the status of the assets of the deceased; whether the testator has a freedom in this regard? And if he or she

has such a freedom, how should it be used? These are the questions to be answered. Modern legal systems award a

partial or total freedom to individuals on how to distribute the assets after the death of the testator. These legal systems

differ in terms of how to use this freedom, i.e. in which form should the declaration of intention be expressed. However,

in the case of electronic wills, which are the main topic of our article, such differentiation disappears. This is because the

majority of legal systems do not contain any legal provisions for electronic wills and this absence makes all of them share

a common ground: despite not being regulated by law, the increase in electronic will related conflicts shows that this

subject needs to be examined thoroughly. For this reason, the electronic will has been selected as the topic of this article

and the regulations, draft law and judicial decisions regarding the e-Will will be analyzed in detail. Then, this topic will

be examined in the context of Turkish law and the question whether the electronic will is valid or not will be discussed.
