43-8-252
Section 43-8-252 Effect of divorce, annulment, or decree of separation. (a) A person who is
divorced from the decedent or whose marriage to the decedent has been annulled is not a surviving
spouse unless, by virtue of a subsequent marriage, he is married to the decedent at the time
of death. A decree of separation which does not terminate the status of husband and wife is
not a divorce for purposes of this section. (b) For purposes of sections 43-8-40 through 43-8-49,
43-8-55 through 43-8-58, 43-8-70 through 43-8-76, 43-8-90, 43-8-91, and 43-8-110 through 43-8-113,
a surviving spouse does not include: (1) A person who obtains or consents to a final decree
or judgment of divorce from the decedent or an annulment of their marriage, which decree or
judgment is not recognized as valid in this state, unless they subsequently participate in
a marriage ceremony purporting to marry each to the other, or subsequently live together as

43-8-137
Section 43-8-137 Revocation by divorce or annulment; revival by remarriage; no revocation by
other changes or circumstances. If after executing a will the testator is divorced or his
marriage annulled, the divorce or annulment revokes any disposition or appointment of property
made by the will to the former spouse, any provision conferring a general or special power
of appointment on the former spouse, and any nomination of the former spouse as executor,
trustee, or guardian, unless the will expressly provides otherwise. Property prevented from
passing to a former spouse because of revocation by divorce or annulment passes as if the
former spouse failed to survive the decedent, and other provisions conferring some power or
office on the former spouse are interpreted as if the spouse failed to survive the decedent.
If provisions are revoked solely by this section, they are revived by testator's remarriage
to the former spouse. For purposes of this section, divorce or annulment means any...
