A more thorough explanation:

Portio legitima is a term used in Roman and civil law that means "lawful portion." It refers to the portion of an estate that must be left to close relatives according to the law. This portion is also known as the inheritance that a given heir is entitled to, and the testator cannot deprive them of it without a special cause.

  • John's father passed away, leaving behind a large estate. According to the law, John is entitled to a portio legitima of the inheritance, which cannot be taken away from him by his father's will.
  • When Maria's grandmother died, she left behind a will that did not include a portio legitima for Maria's mother. This was not allowed by the law, and Maria's mother was able to claim her rightful portion of the inheritance.

These examples illustrate how portio legitima ensures that close relatives receive a fair share of an estate, even if the testator's will does not include them or tries to exclude them. It is a way to protect the rights of heirs and prevent unfair distribution of assets.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.
