I looked into this before for a friend of mine from MN. At that time it was 1/2 to spouse, with the remaining 1/2 distributed between the children - jnine Apr 21, 18:09 1
- yep, if you click on the legal link in the article, it completely contradicts what the author wrote. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 21, 18:22
What about Wendy & Lisa??? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Apr 21, 17:29
siblings is all he has. -- nm - Spawn Apr 21, 17:17 5
- I was just surprised that this is the State law, not a personal choice. I thought it always went to spouse, children, THEN parents and siblings. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 21, 17:22 4
  - grandchildren then parents is odd - Spawn Apr 21, 17:28 3
    - fwiw, other sources don't show that order. here's a page from a minnesota estate planning law firm. -- (link) - b. Apr 21, 17:33 2
      - This makes more sense. And now that I click the legal in the article, it contradicts what the author reported. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 21, 18:06
      - and here's a state page of order if no spouse. nm but: -- (link) - b. Apr 21, 17:35
I believe the Doves have a claim for all the crying they've done -- nm - Beaker Apr 21, 16:58
Is there some suggestion he died intestate? Because if there's a will, none of that matters -- nm - ML Galaxy Apr 21, 16:55 5
- No, this is just acknowledging what would be the case since no Will has been mentioned yet. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 21, 16:56 4
  - i would estimate the odds that he did not have a will at less than 0.01% -- nm - dj fingerblast Apr 21, 17:01 3
    - But what are the chances that it's a vague, groovy will? -- nm - Max Apr 21, 17:28
    - I agree, but the law is odd if there isn't one. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 21, 17:02 1
      - blood flows downhill -- nm - dj fingerblast Apr 21, 17:03
