I Heard a couple of news stories yesterday stating that it took 15 minutes to expire. I kept thinking the end result was achieved, so what's the problem ?

Excellent point- you would think that, wouldn't you?

My sister was murdered by her husband who in turn committed suicide. Guess who got her estate?
His family.
Guess it depends on the state. We fought it up to the Maryland Supreme Court. It was a case of the survivor (husband) being the brief beneficiary of her estate before killing himself and passing it all to his family. We have gone mad.

I will be deleting this post in the near future but thought it would partly address Steve's suggestion..

Dayum! That really sucks. If his family was actually human they would have split 55/50.

Thanks, TMC, Gene. She was only 31. My parents got nothing but the heartache and legal bills.
The letter of the law sometimes supercedes the intent.

Let me know if you'd like " all " quotes of your post deleted Bloody, I will be happy to do so.

True true, yet why is it that some things seem to be open to " interpretation " vs some are etched in stone as to their meaning and intent? It's THiS that makes folks NoT trust " The Law "
