Depends on State Law of the State you are in. But most states have a in testate clause (means without a will) that has a heirarchy of hiership, and yes your deceased siblings children would be intitled to that part he&#92;she would have recieved if still alive. Go to WWW.STATE.(whatever state you are in).org and there should be a link to state legislature.

"Law to put something into circulation, especially counterfeit money or a forgery, under the pretense that it is genuine."\nThis is the definition in the dictionary, but it doesn't make too much sense to me.

Statute laws are laws that are written down and passed by a legislature. There are so many laws that it would not begin to be possible to explain what they all are. They range from administrative acts that establish processes for things like getting married to penal laws. You can see all Acts of Parliament at the site below.

In estates law, it means making sure that the proper heirs get the rest, residue and remainer of a decedent's estate after all of the specific gifts have been made.\n\nEx.  "To Alan, I leae $10,000.00.  To Betty, I leave my watch.  To my three children, I leave the rest, residue and remainder."  So when this guy dies, the executor gives Carl ten g's, Betty a watch, and distributes the residue (which could be four bucks or four million) evenly between the three children.

The line of succession would jump.  It's too risky to have them in the same place taking the same risks (unless there are none).

You are probably referring to a "quit-claim deed." It is a legal document transfering all ownership rights to another person.\n\nSee an attorney to make sure it is prepared and filed properly.

My father just passed without a will so I've been through something similar.\nIf there is a will then the law is to follow the instructions of the will. It can be contested but that takes time and money.\nIf there is no will then someone has to send a petition to the courts in his, the deceased, state and request to be appointed guardian/executor of the estate. It is easier to have the "permission" of the other siblings so it won't be contested. Once the court approves the petition then his estate, assests thereof, will be used, sold if necessary to pay off any and all debts the person had. What is left after that is divided between the surviving brothers and/or sisters. Children of deceased siblings are not usually included in the division, but can be. Hope this helps.

If the property is in the U S and the person died intestate than the laws of succession will apply.  Under this law the brother would have first claim on the property.

PROBATE as I understand is obtained on the will after death of testator. If the testator is alive he could divide the estate amongst his successors for which no probate is probably required. i wonder if the Law in PHILIPPINES differs in the matter.

A Life Estate means that the mother can live on her property for the remainder of her life.  Since wills usually can be changed, I'd think a Life Estate could also be modified.  Why not ask for a copy of the document setting up this arrangement, or better still go with your mother-in-law to her attorney, and ask your questions? \n\nDisgruntled family members can usually contest provisions, but a competent attorney can make it difficult for them to succeed by defining what they will receive should they contest.
