ZGB; Zweite Abteilung: Der Erbgang; Siebenzehnter Titel: Die Teilung der Erbschaft; Zweiter Abschnitt: Die Teilungsart; B. Ordnung der Teilung; I. Verfügung des Erblassers
Art. 608 ZGB
Der Erblasser ist befugt, durch Verfügung von Todes wegen seinen Erben Vorschriften über die Teilung und Bildung der Teile zu machen.
Unter Vorbehalt der Ausgleichung bei einer Ungleichheit der Teile, die der Erblasser nicht beabsichtigt hat, sind diese Vorschriften für die Erben verbindlich.
Ist nicht ein anderer Wille des Erblassers aus der Verfügung ersichtlich, so gilt die Zuweisung einer Erbschaftssache an einen Erben als eine blosse Teilungsvorschrift und nicht als Vermächtnis.
