Probably Spouse first, then his Estate then the children.
That is the normal distribution. If there are others on the deed that may affect things. And a spouse normally has a right to the property for at least a life estate.
Yes. If you are married and your spouse has bad credit, you inherit that bad credit and depending on the state, you can inherit half the debt if you divorce. * No, debts incurred before marriage do not affect a new spouse's credit report even in CP states. Problems could arise however, if the couple apply for a joint line of credit such as a mortgage.
That type of situation is regulated by the laws of intestacy. Generally, when a person with no spouse or children dies, their parents, then siblings are their heirs at law.

If there is no living spouse, the children inherit, after them the siblings. If there is no living spouse, children or siblings, parents inherit, after them first cousins, then second cousins, etc.
Most assets acquired during a marriage in California are considered shared property between you and your spouse, but inheritance is an exception. If you receive inheritance while you are married, your spouse does not have any right to that money as long as you keep it separate from your spouse and your shared property.
It depends on the court's ruling.
You, and his descendants, should inherit his estate. His estate includes the inheritance from his parents. There should be no argument about it. Contact a knowledgable probate attorney for assistance.
The spouse normally takes priority on property. If there is a will it will take precedence.
Sounds right to me. The time of the passing has nothing to do with who gets the property, it's in the will. If there is no will than your spouse is entitled to it.
I believe a spouse if entitled to 1/3 of the estate....prevents them from becoming a charge of the state.

Typically your spouse will be entitled to at least half the estate, even if the will says otherwise.
In California, the estate must resolve all debts including medical bills. Until that is done, the spouse cannot inherit anything.
