California Statutes
§ 6211. — 6211. (Repealed and added by Stats. 1991, Ch. 1055, Sec. 20.)
California·Code PROB Probate Code - PROB·Div. 6. DIVISION 6. WILLS AND INTESTATE SUCCESSION·Part 1. PART 1. WILLS·Ch. 6. CHAPTER 6. California Statutory Will·Art. 1. ARTICLE 1. Definitions and Rules of Construction
Reference to a person “if living” or who “survives me” means a person who survives the decedent by 120 hours. A person who fails to survive the decedent by 120 hours is deemed to have predeceased the decedent for the purpose of a California statutory will, and the beneficiaries are determined accordingly. If it cannot be established by clear and convincing evidence that a person who would otherwise be a beneficiary has survived the decedent by 120 hours, it is deemed that the person failed to survive for the required period. The requirement of this section that a person who survives the decedent must survive the decedent by 120 hours does not apply if the application of the 120-hour survival requirement would result in the escheat of property to the state.
