Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between full and maternal-half siblings in inheritance?
- Full or paternal-half siblings inherit as residuaries (male = twice the female). Maternal-half siblings inherit by prescribed share (one-sixth for one, one-third for multiple), and males and females are equal.
- What are the sibling-exclusion cases?
- Excluded by children or grandchildren (full exclusion), by the father (full exclusion), and by the grandfather in most cases. Full siblings exclude paternal-half siblings in cases.
- How does a sister inherit in different cases?
- One solo full sister: one-half. Full sister with full brother: male = twice the female. Multiple full sisters (no brother): two-thirds. Full sister with daughters: takes what remains after daughters (becomes residuary).
