Gift to more remote or adopted descendant

(1) A gift that was received from the deceased by a more remote descendant before the closer descendant who excluded them from the succession ceased to be an heir, or by a descendant who took the place of a descendant as a substitute heir, is not to be adjusted unless the deceased directed adjustment when they made the gift.

(2) The same applies if a descendant received a gift from the deceased before attaining the legal position of a descendant.
