divide and pay over rule

divide-and-pay-over rule. Wills & estates. The principle that if the only provisions in a testamentary disposition are words ordering that payment be made at some time after the testator’s death, time will be of the essence and the interest is future and contingent rather than vested and immediate. [Cases: Wills 630(6). C.J.S. Wills § 1339.]
