INHERITANCE IN ADOPTION

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 07 January 2011 This query is : Resolved 

I HAVE A CASE REGARDING INHERITANCE IN ADOPTION, PLEASE ADVISE ME WHAT BEST CAN BE DONE IN THIS CASE.

Mr A, natural son of Mr C was adopted by Mr S (younger brother of Mr C and at the time of adoption Mr A was 23 years old and was also married)

Mr S made a WILL where all his movable and immovable properties were to be formed as trusts and are to be used for charitable activities.

Since now Mr A being adopted son of Mr S has automatically lost all his succession rights on his natural father Mr C's properties.

And he is also now legally not entitled to get any inheritance from Mr S according to his WILL.

CAN YOU PLEASE SUGGEST ME AS TO HOW THIS WILL CAN BE CHALLENGED, OR IS THERE ANY OTHER MEANS THROUGH WHICH THIS CASE CAN BE SOLVED AS BOTH ADOPTION DEED AS WELL AS WILL ARE REGISTERED.

In my opinion C can challenge the will if the properties were ancestral.

Both Mr C and Mr S have deceased
