When a Life estate remarries and the person with the life estate becomes deceased what rights does the new spouse have?
That depends on whether there is a will or not. If a will has been properly executed then the will takes precedence. If there is no will then the estate passes to the current spouse. The previous spouse can attempt to use legal means to gain part of the estate, but the divorce should have already partitioned up the estate. Also descendents of the deceased estate owner may use legal process to gain part of the estate. For a more sure answer speak with an attourney who specialises in your states/areas specific laws on estates.
