Property transfer
3 years ago
Father in law willed 1/3rd property to mother in law (cash included). Now mother in law wants to give her share to her brother and his family whom father in law never liked till his death. Can she give it away like that though they are not legal heirs.

A.if father in law not liked his brother in law then he had to make condition in the "WILL" itelf.
a "WILL" is governed by its conditions.
if there are no conditions then mother in law can do whatever she pleases with her share.
That is the reason 'WILL" have to be made properly.
Hope this clarifies,

A.Hi,
If your father-in-law executed a will in favor of mother-in-law after passing away mother-in-law has to take probate of the property from the competent court and that if you like to stop the conduct of her activity then you can put an objection in the probate case.

A.As the mother in law became the obsolute owner of those properties, she has every right to dispose of all her property as per her choice and or through the Will in favour of any person.
