Estate of Shubin

In Estate of Shubin (1967) 252 Cal.App.2d 588, the court held that there was no ademption and that the beneficiary of the specific devise should receive a more valuable piece of property. The will disposed of a piece of property which was subsequently condemned and the decedent took the proceeds, added approximately $ 2,000 to it and bought a new piece of property within nine days. The court was aided in determining the testator's intention because he had written the address of the new property in the will next to the dispositive provision.
