Do you know when a person is unworthy of succession?

According the Cypriot Law on Wills and on Succession (Cap. 195), a person is deemed unworthy to inherit, if he/she:

• Has been convicted of intentionally and unlawfully causing the death or of intentionally and unlawfully attempting to cause a death of the person to whose estate he would have otherwise succeeded; or
• Has been convicted of the murder or of the attempted murder of the child, parent, husband or wife of the person to whose estate he would have otherwise succeeded; or
• By coercion, fraud or mental pressure has caused the person to whose estate he would have otherwise succeeded to make a will or revoke a will that has already been made by him/her; or
• Has obstructed the person to whose estate he would have otherwise succeeded from making, altering or revoking a will which was already made by him/her;  or
• Has submitted to the person to whose estate he would otherwise have succeeded a supposititious will; or
• Has illegally altered or destroyed a will already made by the person to whose estate he would have otherwise succeeded; or
• Has aided or encouraged any person to commit any of the above acts.
