It depends on the nature of the crime and the laws in any particular jurisdiction.
For example, consider a co-owner or heir who is found guilty of a murder that would result in their acquiring an interest in real estate. Generally, that felon would lose their interest in the real estate by the operation of law that would bar their benefitting from their crime.
- In one case, a husband was found guilty of murdering his wife. They had no living children but had several grandchildren. A court order was recorded in the land records providing that the husband was forever barred from making a claim to the real estate and title was vested in the grandchildren.
- In another case, a son was convicted of the murder of his mother. An order was filed in the probate of her estate barring that son from claiming an interest by inheritance. His siblings inherited the property free and clear of any interest he would have acquired as an heir at law.
Being convicted of a bank robbery may have no affect on property ownership.
You should consult with an attorney who specializes in real estate who can assess your situation and obtain the proper court orders to clear the title if necessary.
