What is the name of your state? Alabama
My Sons biological father passed away recently. His x-wife has a survivors deed that entitles her to the land and house that he had for years before he married her. My son was not called upon the death of his father and the step-sons made all arrangements for the funeral. As his only living child my son would like to recieve all personal property that his father had at the time of his death. Excluding the land and house due to the survivors deed. How can he legally make the ex-wife and her sons return the personal belongings that they removed from the house and can criminal charges be pressed as they had no legal right to remove anything from the property before the estate was probated? There was no will , signed . He was in the process of making the will when he became sick and passed before it could be finished and signed. It does list several items that he owned and wanted passed on the family members. Can my son use this as part of an inventory to prove what was in the house and in his fathers possession. The step sons did not live with him as the boys mother and my sons father had been divorced for almost 3 years.
