HB 1410: Intestate estates distributn

Concerning the distribution of intestate estates.

Summary

  • The rules of descent and distribution are changed if a person dies "intestate," that is, without leaving a will. The surviving spouse will not receive any of the decedent's share of the net community property if the decedent has previously petitioned for a legal separation, a dissolution of marriage, or a declaration of invalidity and the petition for separation, dissolution, or invalidity is still pending.
