whose property is distributed in the will is called the testator of the will. A will has no effect before the death of the testator.

In addition, many lenders have developed lower-cost alternatives to payday loans that have better repayment terms.
If you happen to be behind on your payday loans and your checks keep bouncing, you may be worried about facing criminal prosecutions. Some “payday” lenders have been known to call and threaten borrowers to “pay or go to jail.” As a result many “payday” loan borrowers are terrified by threats of criminal prosecution.
