Part 1E+WWills

5E+WExcept where a contrary intention is shown, it is presumed that if a testator—

(a)devises or bequeaths property to his civil partner in terms which in themselves would give an absolute interest to the civil partner, but

(b)by the same instrument purports to give his issue an interest in the same property,

the gift to the civil partner is absolute despite the purported gift to the issue.
