A quick definition of heredes:

Term: Heredes

Definition: In Roman law, a heredes is a person who inherits the rights and liabilities of a deceased person, also known as an heir. This means that they receive the property and debts of the person who has passed away. There are different types of heredes, such as those appointed by a will (testamentary heir) or those who inherit by law (heir at law). In some cases, a heredes may also be a fiduciary heir, meaning they are appointed to manage the estate for the benefit of another person.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A successor to the rights and liabilities of a deceased person; an heir.

Examples:

  • Heres natus: An heir by reason of birth; an heir at law or by intestacy.
  • Heres factus: An heir appointed by will; a testamentary heir.
  • Heres fideicommissarius: A person made heir by will, in trust for the benefit of another; an heir subject to a trust.

These examples illustrate the different types of heirs that can exist under the concept of heredes. Heres natus refers to an heir who inherits by law or intestacy, while heres factus is an heir appointed by a will. Heres fideicommissarius is an heir who inherits subject to a trust.
