Statute overview

About this statute

This provision updates inheritance rules, including what happens when death order is unclear, what the surviving spouse and children get, and several time limits and court powers. A legitimaris can claim the legitime portie as a money claim, but it is not due until six months after the testator’s death and may be subject to reduction and other limits. The provision adjusts Dutch estate-settlement rules and court roles: a liquidator must prepare and file an inventory quickly, publish notice of appointment, and may have to recover payments to legatees within three years if needed to pay estate debts.
