A male can only inherit the estate, and since Mr. Bennet has no sons, another man by the name of Mr. Collins will inherit it. (He is the closest male related to the Bennet family).

Can felons inherit real estate?

Generally, a felon may inherit real estate if they had no involvement in the death of the owner. For example, if Judith died intestate, with no spouse, leaving three daughters and one was incarcerated, each would inherit a third interest in her estate. If Judith was murdered by one of her daughters, that daughter would be barred from benefitting from Judith's estate. The remaining two sisters would share the property, each acquiring a 1/2 interest. In a local case some years ago, a woman was convicted of murdering her husband and was sentenced to a long prison term. Together they had owned a home. They had no living children but there were two grandchildren. The property was distributed to the two grandchildren.
