O.C.G.A. § 53-4-69: Election by beneficiary with claim adverse to will.

A beneficiary taking under a will shall allow all the provisions of the will to be executed as far as the beneficiary can. A beneficiary who has a claim adverse to the will shall be required to elect whether to claim under the will or against it. However, the mere fact that the beneficiary is also a creditor shall not necessitate an election.
