14-2608. Exercise of power of
appointment

In the absence of a requirement that a power of appointment be exercised by a
reference or by an express or specific reference to that power, a general residuary
clause in a will or a will making general disposition of all of the testator's property
expresses an intention to exercise a power of appointment held by the testator only if
the power is a general power and the creating instrument does not contain a gift if the
power is not exercised or the testator's will manifests an intention to include the
property subject to the power.
