Dower is the provision which the law makes for a widow out of the lands or tenements of the husband for her support. Or a widow's life estate interest in her husband's real property if he died intestate.

DC is not considered a Dower state. See related questions.

The repeal of dower was part of the Omnibus Trusts and Estates Amendment Act of 2000 (D.C. Law 13-292)
