A spouse who is left out of the decedent’s testamentary instruments that were executed before his marriage to the spouse is entitled to half of the decedent’s community and quasi-community property plus a share of his separate property equal to what she would receive by intestate succession. (Prob. Code 21610.) The pretermitted spouse may obtain her statutory share from the decedent’s probate estate and property passing by a revocable trust that becomes irrevocable on death. Here, the issue was whether the pretermitted spouse was entitled to a share of the decedent’s IRA. Answer: no. The IRA was a non-testamentary transfer which, in this case, never passed through either the decedent’s probate estate or his revocable trust, but instead by the decedent’s designation of beneficiaries, passed directly to trusts he had established for other persons.
