In Canadian law,

locker(locker)
there are no specific provisions that automatically disqualify an heir from inheritance based on criminal actions like murder or violence. However, courts have applied the “slayer rule”, which is based on common law principles. The slayer rule prevents a person from benefiting from a crime, particularly if they are responsible for causing the death of the deceased. This rule follows the maxim: “a person cannot profit from their own crime.”

Here are some key points about how this applies in Canada:

1. Murder or Manslaughter: If an heir is found guilty of murdering or manslaughtering the deceased, they will typically be disqualified from inheriting any property from the victim’s estate. This includes both intestate succession (where there is no will) and situations where the heir is named in a will.
2. Civil Forfeiture: Even if a person is not convicted of a crime (for example, in a case of acquittal or lack of criminal charges), civil courts may still prevent them from inheriting if it is proven on a balance of probabilities (a lower standard than criminal law) that they were responsible for the death.
3. Impact on Wills: If the person responsible for the death is a beneficiary in the deceased’s will, courts may use the slayer rule to void their inheritance rights, treating them as if they predeceased the victim.

In summary, under Canadian law, individuals who are found to be responsible for the unlawful death of the testator (person making the will) or another heir can be deprived of their inheritance, but this rule comes from case law and legal principles rather than explicit statutory provisions.

    前阵安省有个灭门自杀案，貌似很幸福阳光的一家人，男人杀了老婆和俩娃后自杀，很震惊的。一朋友偶遇一律师闲聊几句，那律师现在正是此案的律师，估计是指派的，其实也没啥事儿，就是得经常跑法院。为啥呢，因为妻子先过世，她名下所有财产归老公，现在是老公的遗产。包括车，房，和现金。她娘家爸妈退休前都是高收入，不缺钱，但是也不想帮付保险，律师不想让车房没保险，就得去法院要钱。天，这啥法律啊。再联想一下，清华那小两口的房子是不是也归男生，男生打官司估计会把钱花光，女孩的父母怕是一分钱也拿不到吧？
    • 去法院问女方爸妈要钱的依据是什么？不可能吧? -thegirlbefore(退一步海阔天空); 10-22 (#16347467@0)
      • 哦，我没说清楚，不是跟女方爸妈要钱，是拿女方的钱付女方名下的保险。我猜女方的爸妈曾帮付过。我猜如果他们缺钱的话应该能打官司把车房和一部分现金要回来，给律师省事儿了。 -youbet(不亦乐乎); 10-22 (#16347471@0)
        • 男主都不在了，还保 P 险啊。遗产给谁了？给谁用，谁出钱呗。律师脑袋里是**吗？ -troyd(老陈); 10-22 (#16347490@0) +1
