Art. 484 ZGB
Der Erblasser kann einem Bedachten, ohne ihn als Erben einzusetzen, einen Vermögensvorteil als Vermächtnis zuwenden.
Er kann ihm eine einzelne Erbschaftssache oder die Nutzniessung an der Erbschaft im ganzen oder zu einem Teil vermachen oder die Erben oder Vermächtnisnehmer beauftragen, ihm Leistungen aus dem Werte der Erbschaft zu machen oder ihn von Verbindlichkeiten zu befreien.
Vermacht der Erblasser eine bestimmte Sache, so wird der Beschwerte, wenn sich diese in der Erbschaft nicht vorfindet und kein anderer Wille des Erblassers aus der Verfügung ersichtlich ist, nicht verpflichtet.
