Cal. Prob. Code § 6124

Revocation and Revival

Enacted by Stats. 1990, Ch. 79.

If the testator’s will was last in the testator’s possession, the testator was competent until death, and neither the will nor a duplicate original of the will can be found after the testator’s death, it is presumed that the testator destroyed the will with intent to revoke it. This presumption is a presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence.
