right heir

Read a random definition: infra annum

A quick definition of right heir:

A right heir is someone who is entitled to receive property from a person who has died without leaving a will. They can also be someone who inherits property through a will or by law. In some cases, a right heir may be a person who is in line to inherit a lot of money. There are different types of heirs, such as an heir apparent who is certain to inherit unless they die first or are excluded by a valid will, and a pretermitted heir who is a child or spouse who has been left out of a will.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A person who, according to the laws of intestacy, is entitled to receive the property of a deceased person. This can include real or personal property, and can be inherited through a will or by intestate succession.

Examples: If someone dies without a will, their property will be distributed to their right heirs according to the laws of intestacy. For example, if someone dies without a will and has a spouse and children, their spouse and children would be considered right heirs and entitled to a portion of the property.

Explanation: A right heir is someone who is legally entitled to inherit property from a deceased person. This can include real estate, personal property, and other assets. The right heir is determined by the laws of intestacy, which vary depending on the jurisdiction. In some cases, a person may be considered a right heir even if they are not a direct descendant or ancestor of the deceased, such as a cousin or other relative.
