The will should specify who should inherit. If there is no will, the state will have a law that specifies. Just because someone is related does not mean they are entitled to a portion of the estate.
Anyone with a vested interest in the estate can petition the court to open the estate. That would be anyone named in a will, anyone that is owed money by the estate or any natural heir.
Anyone can withdraw from being an heir. There is no requirement to accept an inheritance.
Any natural heir Anyone named in a valid will Anyone owed money by the estate.
Yes. Anyone with an interest in a decedent's estate can do so. An heir would be such an animal.
The testator can will property to anyone they wish. There is no requirement that their family get the assets.
No, an heir only gets access to their share of the estate. They cannot steal money from the others.
An heir may sell property by deed if the estate has been duly probated and the heir acquired all the interest in the property under the will. The estate must be probated in order for title to the real estate to pass legally to the heirs. If the estate has not been probated the deed would be null. If the estate was probated and the heir did not inherit a 100% interest then her/his deed would only convey the proportionate interest they own.
The Erbe family has a Gemanic origin. It was a name given to the family who inherited riches or heir of a big estate.
Any natural heir or anyone with a claim against the estate.
If the heir died after the decedent, any property that was inherited by that heir would become part of that heir's estate. The heir's estate would also need to be probated.
An heir to an estate is usually the spouse, children, or next of kin. The heir may also be named in a will. If their is none of these options, then the estate will go to the state.
