- 2 and 3 only
- 1 and 3 only
- 1, 2 and 3
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - 1, 2 and 3
There is no estoppel against a statute or on a pure point of law, and mere attestation of a deed does not estop the attesting witness from denying its contents. So estoppel fails in all three cases (1, 2 and 3).
