6112.  (a) Any person generally competent to be a witness may act as a witness to a will.(b) A will or any provision thereof is not invalid because the will is signed by an interested witness.(c) Unless there are at least two other subscribing witnesses to the will who are disinterested witnesses, the fact that the will makes a devise to a subscribing witness creates a presumption that the witness procured the devise by duress, menace, fraud, or undue influence. This presumption is a presumption affecting the burden of proof. This presumption does not apply where the witness is a person to whom the devise is made solely in a fiduciary capacity.(d) If a devise made by the will to an interested witness fails because the presumption established by subdivision (c) applies to the devise and the witness fails to rebut the presumption, the interested witness shall take such proportion of the devise made to the witness in the will as does not exceed the share of the estate which would be distributed to the witness if the will were not established. Nothing in this subdivision affects the law that applies where it is established that the witness procured a devise by duress, menace, fraud, or undue influence.(Enacted by Stats. 1990, Ch. 79.)

6122.  (a) Unless the will expressly provides otherwise, if after executing a will the testator’s marriage is dissolved or annulled, the dissolution or annulment revokes all of the following:(1) Any disposition or appointment of property made by the will to the former spouse.(2) Any provision of the will conferring a general or special power of appointment on the former spouse.(3) Any provision of the will nominating the former spouse as executor, trustee, conservator, or guardian.(b) If any disposition or other provision of a will is revoked solely by this section, it is revived by the testator’s remarriage to the former spouse.(c) In case of revocation by dissolution or annulment:(1) Property prevented from passing to a former spouse because of the revocation passes as if the former spouse failed to survive the testator.(2) Other provisions of the will conferring some power or office on the former spouse shall be interpreted as if the former spouse failed to survive the testator.(d) For purposes of this section, dissolution or annulment means any dissolution or annulment which would exclude the spouse as a surviving spouse within the meaning of Section 78. A decree of legal separation which does not terminate the status of spouses is not a dissolution for purposes of this section.(e) Except as provided in Section 6122.1, no change of circumstances other than as described in this section revokes a will.(f) Subdivisions (a) to (d), inclusive, do not apply to any case where the final judgment of dissolution or annulment of marriage occurs before January 1, 1985.

CA Prob Code § 6124 (2021)
2021 California Code|Probate Code - PROB|DIVISION 6 - WILLS AND INTESTATE SUCCESSION|PART 1 - WILLS|CHAPTER 3 - Revocation and Revival|Section 6124.

6124.  If the testator’s will was last in the testator’s possession, the testator was competent until death, and neither the will nor a duplicate original of the will can be found after the testator’s death, it is presumed that the testator destroyed the will with intent to revoke it. This presumption is a presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence.(Enacted by Stats. 1990, Ch. 79.)
CA Prob Code § 6130 (2021)
2021 California Code|Probate Code - PROB|DIVISION 6 - WILLS AND INTESTATE SUCCESSION|PART 1 - WILLS|CHAPTER 4 - Reference to Matters Outside the Will|Section 6130.

2021 California Code|Probate Code - PROB|DIVISION 6 - WILLS AND INTESTATE SUCCESSION|PART 1 - WILLS|CHAPTER 7 - Uniform Testamentary Additions to Trusts Act|Section 6300.

6300.  (a) A devise, the validity of which is determinable by the law of this state, may be made by a will to the trustee of a trust established or to be established by the testator, by the testator and some other person, or by some other person (including a funded or unfunded life insurance trust, although the settlor has reserved any or all rights of ownership of the insurance contracts) if the trust is identified in the testator’s will and its terms are set forth in a written instrument (other than a will) executed before, concurrently with, or within 60 days after the execution of the testator’s will or in the valid last will of a person who has predeceased the testator (regardless of the existence, size, or character of the trust property). The devise is not invalid because the trust is amendable or revocable, or both, or because the trust was amended after the execution of the will or after the death of the testator.(b) Unless the testator’s will provides otherwise, the property so devised (1) is not deemed to be held under a testamentary trust of the testator but becomes a part of the trust to which it is given and (2) shall be administered and disposed of in accordance with the provisions of the instrument or will setting forth the terms of the trust, including any amendments thereto made before or after the death of the testator (regardless of whether made before or after the execution of the testator’s will).(c) Unless otherwise provided in the will, a revocation or termination of the trust before the death of the testator causes the devise to lapse.(Amended by Stats. 2017, Ch. 33, Sec. 1.

6321.  An instrument may designate as a primary or contingent beneficiary, payee, or owner a trustee named or to be named in the will of the person entitled to designate the beneficiary, payee, or owner. The designation shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the contract or plan or, in the absence of such provisions, in a manner approved by the insurer if an insurance, annuity, or endowment contract is involved, and by the trustee, custodian, or person or entity administering the contract or plan, if any. The designation may be made before or after the execution of the designator’s will and is not required to comply with the formalities for execution of a will.(Amended by Stats. 1992, Ch. 178, Sec. 31.6.

6323.  Subject to the provisions of Section 6325, the benefits or rights resulting from the designation are payable or transferable directly to the trustee, without becoming subject to administration, upon or at any time after admission of the designator’s will to probate. A designation pursuant to this chapter does not have the effect of naming a trustee of a separate inter vivos trust but the rights and benefits or the proceeds thereof when paid to the trustee are, or become a part of, the testamentary trust or trusts established pursuant to the designator’s will or shall be added to an inter vivos trust or trusts if the disposition is governed by Section 6300.(Enacted by Stats. 1990, Ch. 79.)
CA Prob Code § 6324 (2021)

6324.  Except as otherwise provided in the designator’s will, the rights and benefits and their proceeds paid or transferred to the trustee are not subject to the debts of the designator to any greater extent than if they were paid or transferred to a named beneficiary, payee, or owner other than the estate of the designator.(Enacted by Stats. 1990, Ch. 79.)
