The document discusses the essential conditions of the doctrine of election in property law. The doctrine of election allows a person to choose between two inconsistent rights or claims but they must elect one and relinquish the other. For the doctrine to apply, the intention of the testator must be clear from the will and the beneficiary must have received a benefit from the will while having knowledge of its contents and their inconsistent right.
