Succession

A female remarries after the demise of her previous husband. She has a daughter from her previous deceased husband and the daughter is brought up and educated by her second husband and also gives her his name as father. The female also has a son from her present husband. Does the daughter get any share in the property of her step father by succession, if the step daughter expires does her children have any share in the property of their mother. How much will the real son inherit by succession compared to the step daughter. Remember the person whose property is question has given his name to his step daughter. What if he has made a will in favour of his real son and has dropped the name of his step daughter.

SEASON GREETINGS, THE STATUS OF PROPERTY IN QUESTION IS NOT CLEAR WITH RESPECT TO THE FATHER`S OWNERSHIP NAMELY HOW HE HAS GOT THIS PROPERTY EITHER SELF EARNED OR BY SUCCESSION ,, IF IT`S A SELF EARNED PROPERTY THEN HE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO MAKE A WILL OF HIS OWN AND THE PROPERY CAN BE WRITTEN IN ANYBODY`S FAVOUR.  OTHERWISE THEN THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION NEEDS MORE DETAIL TO STUDY AND VARIFY WITH PREVIOUS RECORD BEFORE CONCLUDING ANY CONCLUSION.
