disinherison

Read a random definition: in omnibus

A quick definition of disinherison:

Disinheritance is when someone who owns property decides to prevent a person from inheriting that property. This means that the person who would have inherited the property will not receive it. Sometimes, a person can be excluded from inheriting property if the owner gives it to someone else instead. This is called disinherison. However, if the owner does not give the property to someone else, it is not allowed to simply say that a person cannot inherit it. This is called negative disinheritance and is not allowed in most cases.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Disinheritance is the act of preventing someone from inheriting an estate or property that they would have otherwise received. This can be done by the owner of the estate, known as the testator, who may exclude or limit the right of a person or a class to inherit the property.

Example: A father may disinherit his son from his will, preventing him from receiving any of his property after his death. This can be done for various reasons, such as a strained relationship or disapproval of the son's lifestyle choices.

Explanation: Disinheritance is a legal process that allows a testator to control who inherits their property after their death. It is important to note that disinheritance can only be done if the testator devises all the property to another person. This means that the property cannot be left without an inheritor. Disinheritance can also be ineffective if it is done in a negative way, without disposing of the property to another person.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
