On that date North Carolina's new in heritance law goes into effect. Approximately 30 people heard the new law explained by attorney Luther Hamilton Jr Tuesday night at the courthouse. The law will apply only in cases where a per son has died without leaving a will. The law is the result of over a quarter of a century's work by lawyers and legislators. Our old and antiquated pre-.fuly 1, I960 inheritance laws were mod eled after and derived directly from the old English common law | and had been changed or modern ized very little in the past 150 years, Mr. Hamilton said. If a man dies intestate under the present law (intestate is a term meaning that a person has died without leaving a will), leaving only personal property and no chil dren, his widow gets the first $10,000 in value of the personal j property. She, or his parents, di vide the rest. However, if he dies owning only real property (land) the Canons of Descent and the Law of Power come into play and the wife gets only a life estate in one-third of the real property and the brothers iand sisters would get all the rest, leaving tin- parents who ratty be I old and needy, nothing. I After July 1, 1900 this situation I will no longer prevail. Surviving husbands and wives, as well as other kin, will inherit a "fair share" of property where there is no will, Mr. Hamilton said. Husbands and wives are treated equally and fairly as are all kin of equal degree, while many ancient and obsolete property rules, which have survived for no good reason, are abolished or modernized. Some of the more important points of the new law are as fol lows: I. There is no longer any dis tinction between real and personal property for the purpose of deter mining who can inherit it. Pre lains New Law Inheritance viously, who could inherit proper ty frequently depended on whether it was real or personal with dif ferent classes of heirs entitled to each. This doubtful distinction has been abolished so that property of an intestate (one who dies without a will) will go to the same sur vivors, regardless. of the nature of the property. 2. Husbands and wives may now inherit equally from each other and, with the old marital life estates of dower and courtesy abolished, receive substantial full ownership share of the intestate estate. 3. Certain obsolete doctrines such as the distinction between ances tral and non-ancestral property have been abolished. Half-brothers and half-sisters and other half blood kin can now inherit equally with their equivalent whole-blood kin. 4. An illegitimate child is given full right to inherit not only from but by and through its mother, cutting the child completely off from the lineage of the father and making it a true member of the family of the mother. Formerly, it could inherit real propej^y from, but not by or through, its mother. 5. The law of advancements has been rewritten in greater detail to apply to any person who would be an heir of the deceased, instead of just children, as previously was the law. 6. The new law prefers parents over brothors and sisters in the order of succession on the basis of their greater probable aeed. 7. The new law provides a new and more equitable order of des cent and distribution. 8. The new law limits the inheri tance rights of collateral kin to those within five degrees of kin ship to the intestate, unless it is necessary to go further than five degrees to find kin capable of in heriting so as to prevent the prop erty from escheating to the state.
