Intestate Succession Laws
In my case, the Heirs of the Decedent are the siblings.
The Total number of siblings now living are four. I understand that the siblings that are deceased, that part of the estate would go to their decendants.
My question is: If the deceased sibling had a child that is now deceased, would part of the estate go to the sibling's grandchildren?
There was 7 in my family and 3 have now passed. Would the share be 1/6th?
