524.2-514 CONTRACTS CONCERNING SUCCESSION.
A contract to make a will or devise, or not to revoke a will or devise, or to die intestate, if
executed after January 1, 1976, may be established only by (i) provisions of a will stating material
provisions of the contract, (ii) an express reference in a will to a contract and extrinsic evidence
proving the terms of the contract, or (iii) a writing signed by the decedent evidencing the contract.
The execution of a joint will or mutual wills does not create a presumption of a contract not
