Payment of elective share.
In determining whether any payment is required to a surviving spouse in
satisfaction of the elective share provided for in ORS 114.605, the court shall
consider the values of the decedents probate estate, the decedents nonprobate
estate, the surviving spouses estate, the decedents probate transfers to the
surviving spouse and the decedents nonprobate transfers to the surviving
spouse. If the court determines that the aggregate value of the surviving
spouses estate, the decedents probate transfers to the surviving spouse and
the decedents nonprobate transfers to the surviving spouse do not satisfy the
amount of the elective share, any additional amount required to satisfy the
elective share shall be paid out of the decedents probate estate and the
decedents nonprobate estate in the manner provided by ORS 114.700. [2009 c.574
