Is this an actionable claim?

Hi, If a nominee of a deceased receives money from the Bank, do other legal heirs have an actionable claim against the nominee to recover their share. In pure legal terms can this be called an actionable claim? Thanks, Shanti

Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether other legal heirs have an actionable claim against a nominee who receives money from a deceased person's bank account. Specifically, it questions if this situation constitutes a legally actionable claim and if such a claim can be relinquished through a written instrument, especially when there's no will favouring the nominee.
