It depends. If the account is a joint account with right of survivorship (JTROS), it goes to your sister and not to his estate. Otherwise, it may go to his estate.

Does stepmom get house and property that father had before their marriage after fathers death?

In most cases, the stepmom does not automatically receive the house and property that the father owned before their marriage upon the father's death. The distribution of assets would typically follow the father's will or intestacy laws if there is no will in place. It's important to consult with a legal professional to understand the specific laws that apply in the relevant jurisdiction.


Who has to PAy taxes UPON Death bank account?

When someone dies, their estate is responsible for paying any taxes owed on the assets they leave behind, including their bank accounts. The executor of the estate is typically responsible for ensuring that any taxes are paid from the deceased person's assets before they are distributed to heirs.


How do you find out if your father left you anything when he died. There is no known will and he was not married.?

To answer your immediate question: your father didn't leave you anything when he died if he didn't have a will. If your father died intestate (without a will) and owned any property at the time of his death, his property would be distributed to his heirs-at-law according to the state laws of intestacy. If he was not survived by a spouse then, generally, his property would be distributed to his children and/or the children of any deceased child. You can check the laws of his state at the related question link below. However, if your father died owning property his estate would need to be probated. An Administrator would need to be appointed by the probate court and THEN the Administrator would have the authority to settle the estate and to distribute the property according to state laws after the payment of any debts. You can check to see if a probate was ever filed in your father's estate by contacting the probate court that serves his jurisdiction by telephone or in person and asking a clerk to check the index for a file under your father's name. If a probate file exists you can go to the court and review the file. It should contain an inventory of your father's assets and a record of the distribution.


Can a 14 and 16 year old leave home and not be considered a runaway in the state of Indiana to live with Step-Mother after death of their father?

In Indiana, a minor is considered a runaway if they leave home without parental consent before the age of 18. To avoid being classified as a runaway, the 14 and 16 year olds would need legal permission from their guardians or through the court system to live with their stepmother after the death of their father. It's advisable to consult with a family law attorney to navigate this situation properly.


Is sending a Death Threat Illegal?

Yes. However the exact crime wouldn't be called "sending a death threat". The crime will depend on if any thing happens in addition to the threat. The threat itself could be just "harassment" under you local statutes. If you are being threatened please contact your local law enforcement agency.

Can A son write will giving his share of inheritance from his father's estates to his surviving sister?

It is my opinion that the Florida law provides that the property transfers upon death of the father. The son can waive his interest in the property in the father's probate. If the property is being held in some kind of an account that does not require it to distributed until death of the beneficiaries then the son can create a will that waives his interest or just simply gives it to his sister. But I would have to review the case with the parties to give a better recommendation.

What happens to a joint bank account after someone dies and the second holder his wife to be was not yet put in his will but his sister was?

In the UK, where there is a joint bank account, any of the signatories on the account can do anything with the contents of the account. If one signatory dies, the position does not change and the remaining signatories can continue using the account. HOWEVER, for the purposes of inheritance tax, the contents of the account at the time of death must noted and, (unless there is documented proof to the contrary), a sum equal to the content divided by the number of signatories on the account will be included in the tax/probate calculations for the deceased.


Does my step father have more right than my father with no will set in place?

Not sure what state you live in, but in Florida, the answer is YES as to your mother's assets. As her spouse upon death, the step-father has the rights. However, as to a sister or brother, your father will have the rights as to their assets if the step-father did not adopt them.

by a bull Cleopatra had three sisters. Her sister, also named Cleopatra, died rather young, and we don't have the cause of her death.

I have a joint account with my mother and father upon their death can i withdraw the funds?

Yes, you can do that. Since you are the joint holder of the bank accounts of your mother and father, you can very well withdraw funds from the account. However it is better to provide your parents' death certificate to the bank and convert them into single holding accounts because your parents are deceased and they can no longer use the accounts.
