disinheritance

Read a random definition: presumption of survivorship

A quick definition of disinheritance:

Disinheritance: When someone dies, they may leave behind property that can be inherited by their family members or loved ones. However, sometimes a person may not want a certain family member or loved one to receive any of their property after they die. This is called disinheritance. Disinheritance happens when the person who is making the will takes steps to make sure that the person they do not want to inherit anything is excluded from the will. This can be done by not including them in the will or by adding a special clause to the will that says they cannot inherit anything.

A more thorough explanation:

Disinheritance is when someone is intentionally excluded from receiving any property or assets after the death of the owner. This can be done by either leaving them out of the will or including a specific clause in the will that states they are being disinherited.

For example, if a father writes a will that specifically states that his son will not receive any of his assets after his death, this is considered disinheritance. Another example would be if a grandmother leaves all of her assets to her grandchildren except for one, whom she disinherits.

Disinheritance is a legal process that can have serious consequences for the disinherited person. It is important to consult with a lawyer before making any decisions regarding disinheritance.

Jackfrost has a point though, a good way to stand out with your apps is to do as much "optional" stuff as possible, including the interview

Defining “postmodernism” is a daunting task. One commentator has likened it to “trying to nail gelatin to a wall.” Part of the difficulty is postmodernism’s heterogeneity. As Angela Harris has noted, “There are as many different definitions of postmodernism as there are postmodernists.”
