Petition Action

Succession Law - A childless Spouse

Additional Information

Law of Succession - a childless spouse

Responsible department: Scotland Office

In Intestacy Should the Surviving lifetime childless spouse be granted the right to inherit the whole estate.

Should blood syblings be remove from making claims when there is a living spouse
“no person should precede a living lifetime spouse”

a spouse is by choice Parents are your heritage & special - blood syblings are your relatives

It's not in keeping with the way we live our lives in the 21st Century, L.O.S-1964 is outdated,

I ask our Scottish Government to Grant the Surviving childless spouse the right to inherit the whole estate.& to deny blood siblings when there is a living spouse.
