PART 2:
- Arkansas intestate succession law: Ark.Code.Ann. § 28-9-214(1969)
a. If the decedent is survived by a spouse and issue in the state of Arkansa then the spouse will only receive one-third of the decedent’s assets and the issue will receive two-thirds of the assets. This differs from New York law because in NY the spouse will get the first $50,000 and then half.
b. If a decedent is survived by a spouse and no issue, then the surviving spouse will get one-half of your assets, if it married less than three years. The other half of the assets are passed to the parents, if living. If no living parents, the assets will be passed to the siblings of the decedent. However, if the siblings of the decedent predeceased, his/her children would take the share. This is different from NY law because in NY the spouse will get everything.
c. If the decedent is survived by no spouse and no issue, then the parents get everything. This law is the same as NY law.
2. Arkansas Testamentary Capacity law: A.C.A. § 28-25-101. The person making the will has to have sufficient mental capacity, he has to understand what he’s giving away, to whom he is giving it to, and realize the relationship of the people receiving the gift in his will and has to be 18 years old. It appears to be the same as New York law, where the testator needs to have sound and mind.
3. Arkansa will Execution law: A.CA. §28-25-103. There has to be two witnesses to will signing in Arkansas, same as New York.
