What happens when a married man dies without a will in Oregon?

Oregon law is very strict on what will happen to the items left behind by a married man. If the man does not have a will, the town judge will seize control of all family assets and see that they are used to the benefit of both the family and the community. Typically, the eldest son will act as the liaison between the judge and the family unit. If the married man either has no son or children, the brother of the married man will act as the liaison. If no male on the husband's side can be found, the judge will appoint a respectable man from the community to act as the head of the family and take control of the family assets.
