章節(jié)摘錄

　　The law of succession considers how property is passed along from one generation to another. The American legal system recognizes a persons right to dispose of his orher property as he or she wishes. One common way to do this is to execute a will. Ifa person leaves behind a valid will， the courts will enforce it. However， if someoneleaves no will （or has improperly drawn it up）， then the person has-died intestate，and the state must dispose of the property.　　The states disposition of the property is carried out according to the fixed schemeset forth in the state statutes.　By law， intestate property passes to the deceasedpersons heirs——that is， to his or her nearest relatives. Occasionally a person who diesintestate has no living relatives. In that situation the property escheats， or passes， tothe state in which the deceased resided. State statutes often prohibit the more remoterelatives， such as second cousins and great uncles and aunts， from inheriting.
