Legal Answers
Q. Is it illegal if a parent 'legally' robbed their child of their inheritance left in a will by her father before death?
A: Those of us born out of wedlock can inherit pursuant to R.I. Gen. Laws § 33-1-8, a Rhode Island law that was first enacted in 1905. That 1905 law was probably enacted prior to the time of your great-grandfather's death, and would have prevented a finding that your grandmother could not inherit. Even without this statute, it has always been true that people can will their estate to anyone they want. While there might have been other reasons why the court did not accept the will to probate, such as a lack of disinterested witnesses to the signing, your grandmother's birth status would not be one of those reasons. If the will were invalid then the court would next examine whether there were any other, prior will that were enforceable. Assuming that there were no other, prior will, then the court would then examine the matter under the laws of intestacy. The same statute would apply, 33-1-8, to affirm your grandmother's right to inherit. So, I believe that you are right to suspect that something went wrong in this case and that your grandmother should not have been disinherited by judicial decree. ... Read More
Q. I want to file for divorce in state of RI. What are my first steps. Doesn’t look like it will be an amicable divorce.
A: There is a Guide and File portal on the Family Court section of the Rhode Island Judiciary's website. If you are trying to represent yourself then you can try to commence a case using the Guide and File and follow its instructions. Hiring a lawyer would be a good idea though.
Q. Why would an estate be divided between 1 living and 3 deceased siblings?
A: Unfortunately no, it would not all go to the living sibling. The division of the estate between the living sibling and the descendants of the three deceased siblings is the correct distribution under Rhode Island law. As for the amount of money in the estate and how much is left, you can find out from the case file. The probate court has the file and it is public. You can go to the probate court and request to look at it. You can also request to make a copy of it.
