Imagine this case. It isn’t fantasy, at least in Italy.
CASE:
Consider an individual (male/female) is next to die (X) - being father/mother of recognised sons/daughters and not’s.
She/He wrote a legal testament - containing hypothetical assets, properties and bank accounts to leave after his death.
Question and dilemma:
There’s who knows consciously of it and who instead, like the not recognised sons/daughters, perhaps belonging to another adoptive family since their birth or childhood that :
1) They don’t know the whole father’s history and who she/he could be.
2) In consequences of the first paragraph, they aren’t well-aware about the testament and their legitimate right to succeed in.
Practically, we have a fight between recognised sons and not’s. The first ones (maybe well aware of who they are) and the second ones (unfortunately, aware of anything).
What could happen?
1) The first ones, that could be envious of the “legitimate quotes” of the second ones - could fall in legal or even illegal acts, actions and reactions to acquire everything.
2) The dying father/mother (X) - upset and not proud of the “not recognised son” for personal choices, character and decisions - has no legal options to avoid that the “legitimate quote” fall on his head. It’s a right that is legally disciplinate by the law.
And here, could happen the impossible:
Not having legal ways to impede/hide what the “not recognised” son will acquire legally after the death - the only cruel and illegal options she/he handles are :
- making him die (for different and apparent reasons such as accidents, health or disappearing and so on) before herself/himself die. Once he’s passed away there wouldn’t be any concern anymore. His absence allows to manage everything with calmness and transparency. No legal and civil complaints. It’s a race against time. Who first? Because if not well-planned - could happen that the father/mother die first. So, the second option gets in the game, just to keep it safe.
- for absurd and travelling with fantasy (I hope so), trying to edit his DNA or that of his not recognised son.
- giving birth to a new child making believe through scams and artefacts - he belongs to him without he knew anything, else the castle would fall. How ? Creating a fake history, letting him unemployed or dirtying him with a sort of fake crime (use of drugs or addiction) to let Judges never would confirm him as the father. Any judge would let a child be managed by a toxic, addicted, right ? (Even if this guy never touched drugs or substances - someone did the dirty job for him 😉). But does this son belong to him? Until DNA tests aren’t correctly executed and matched - everyone will believe that even if he never touched or met a girl before. This option would allow him to make the testament succeed directly on the new born - considering, for absurd, it doesn’t belong to him. Death will concretise this process.
Note: the current Italian law allows - after the death - a waiting time of 10 years - for inherits to succeed and accept it. Therefore, there’s a lot of time to keep it secret and hidden while the child could grow up.
Not proud to write these cruelties but there’s the life I am going through. That not said. That not advertised because it’s uncomfortable.
I attach a simple draw to illustrate easily the example. I recommend you all - keep yourselves always well aware of your interests.
