A will is not operative If you fail to leave a will, or just as bad, leave one that is poorly drawn, out of date, or open to misinterpretation, you neglect not only your citizenship but the financial and social security or your loved ed. ones. What happens if a man dies Dr. Emery, University of Utah provost and professor of law, outlined the importance of this at the sym- without a will? His estate is executed under English common law statutes known as Intestate Succession. These statutes attempt to distribute property around the family unit. Thus, U a man dies leaving a wife and one child, the Alfred C. posium held at the Union Building Thursday. It was by the General Federation of Womens Clubs and the U. of U. Division of Continuing Education. ITS VITAL While the subject of wills and probate is not the most exciting topic, it is one of the most significant to all adults, from young marrieds to grandparents, Dr. Emery said. A will is basically a statement by a living person of the .way he would like his property distributed at the time of his death. It is very flexible and permits each person to example is in the realm of personal effects, such as jewelry or family heirlooms. Since things of this nature usually have great emotional value, their distribution often causes family conflict. FOR DISTRIBUTION In a will, the parent can prescribe a method by which possessions can be distribut- property Dr. Emery noted that On the surface this distribution seems realistic. It offers serious problems, however, in that it provides only one plan of distribution to fit all situa-tins. He illustrated this with an example of a man who dies and leaves a wife and two of infant children. his estate will be given to his wife and the rest will be divided between his children One-thir- d If the estate is small, the provided for the wife may be totally insufficient to meet the obligations that face the family. Restrictions placed on the use of the one-thir- d chldrens share may make these funds unavailable. In twenty years of law, I have not yet found a situation in which the intestate succession was truly adequate. That is why a will is so vitally important. rior? Just who gives us the right to judge? And in this statement (and similar ones) lies a terrible threat; a vicious fallacy. until the death of the person who makes it. Thus it may be adjusted to meet changing life situations. There are innumerable benefits from making a will, as Dr. Emery pointed out. One REAL PROBLEMS If he has no children the first $100,000 is distributed to his wife and one-hathe excess over that amount. The remainder is divided among his other relatives.
