And Then They Were Dead/guilty Pleasures

They lived in by former husband and his name is the house there are four children, but the ex-husband quick note home to me who else has the right of this house

Would you please repeat?

His children

Generally, under the rules of matrimonial property on divorce, the decree will specify who gets possession of real property and other common assets. Since the ex-husband has performed an act of leaving, what would be required by the decree, if the ownership of the property was the woman in the settlement, it is the sole property of women.

When she remarried, this asset is part of his estate, and if it should subsequently pass, while the property would be addressed by the specifications of his last will and testament, or in the abscence of this document, as directed the rule of law, by a Probate Court. Usually, the surviving spouse is the sole heir to the estate of the deceased, unless there is a will stating otherwise.

Know that as the sole heir to the estate, you are also liable only for debts of the estate. However, if the female received the house in case of divorce and remarriage, and that "new" husband is, then she would keep the house as the surviving spouse, unless there is a will stating othewise.

Even if the woman entered the marriage with assets of the house, she could still be considered propoerty community if the new spouse has provided funds for the mortgage, renovation and other improvements at home. In this case, it might in fact the will of her half of community property, then to his children from a previous marriage. This would be questionable, but, notwithstanding a decision contrary to the Probate Court, perfectly plausable.
