  1. “A gift causa mortis is a gift made in expectation of the donor’s death and upon the condition that the property will belong fully to the donee in case the donor dies as or when anticipated, leaving the donee surviving him or her provided that the gift is not revoked in the meantime. It has been stated: similarly that a gift causa mortis is subject to the following conditions: (1) it must be made in contemplation, fear, or peril of death; (2) the giver must die of the illness or peril that he or she fears or contemplates; and (3) the delivery must be made with the intent that the gift will only take effect if the giver actually dies.”
