widower's allowance

A quick definition of widower's allowance:

A widower's allowance is money that is given to a man whose wife has died. It is a part of the money that the wife left behind, and it is given to the husband to help him take care of himself and any children they may have had. This allowance is different from other types of allowances, like the ones given to people who work or to those who are retired. It is only given to widowers who have lost their wives.

A more thorough explanation:

A widower's allowance is a portion of a deceased person's estate that is set aside by law for the surviving spouse, regardless of any competing claims or testamentary dispositions. This allowance is also known as a spousal allowance.

For example, if a person dies and leaves behind a surviving spouse, the court may award a portion of the estate to the surviving spouse as a widower's allowance. This allowance is intended to provide temporary maintenance and support to the surviving spouse and may be limited for a fixed period or continue until all contests are resolved.

Widower's allowance is different from a family allowance, which is a portion of the estate set aside by law for the surviving spouse, children, or parents.

Overall, a widower's allowance is a legal provision that ensures that the surviving spouse receives a portion of the deceased person's estate for temporary maintenance and support.
