Election in Europe
Definition of Election
Choice. The equitable doctrine of election is to the effect that he who takes a benefit under an instrument, must accept or reject the instrument as a whole ; he cannot approbate and reprobate. If there is in the will of X, a gift of A’s property to B, and a gift to A, A can only take the gift by giving his own property or its value to B. Otherwise he can elect to keep his own property and reject the gift. See Vardon’s Trusts, He
