§ 574. , which Section has been eliminated.) It sets out, in broad terms, the rules for

survival of actions of all kinds (except those actions related specifically to the

estate or its property, which are covered later in Chapter 22), and for the measure of

recovery in cases wherein the decedent was or would have been a party. Section

2209 contains subject matter which was previously contained in § 574 of the

Probate Code of Guam (1970), as well as in § 956 of the Civil Code of Guam (i.e.,

the material contained in subsection (d).) Thus, § 2209 is not a great departure from

previous law; rather, it brings together various facets of prior law in a manner that

is more sensible, and somewhat more general, than prior law.
