A family consists of a DAUGHTER, her MOTHER (biological) and her STEP-FATHER (her mother’s second husband). The Step-father had bequeathed all his wealth to the Mother. The Mother had bequeathed all her potential wealth to the Daughter.
The Mother is convicted of killing the Step-Father. The Step-Father’s siblings bring suit against the Mother under the slayer rule and win all her inheritance. The Daughter gets nothing. The Mother dies.
20 years later, the Daughter uncovers definitive proof exonerating the Mother.
Question: 1. Can she establish her Mother’s innocence legally in court? 2. Can she then sue her Step-father’s siblings for her inheritance which she lost due to slayer rule?
