【Apple】Sadly, I had to miss my father-in-law's funeral. But the reason why is even sadder.

[@annnichols3091]

I remember reading about a woman whose husband kept forgetting their wedding anniversary. One year she bought herself a romantic card and some diamond earrings. On the morning of their anniversary, she opened the card and thanked him because it was so lovely. Then she opened the little box, exclaimed enthusiastically about his generosity, and put the earrings on. IIRC, she called her friends and relatives to gush about her wonderful, thoughtful husband's gift. He never forgot their anniversary again.

"Guys have their own needs." I don't even want to know. Especially since it didn't include the wife.

[@ladyofthemasque]

There is almost always more than one copy of an official will. The law office of the lawyer that helped draft it will always have a copy, too. Addtionally, the court system can STILL demand he pays, AND they can arrange to have "a reasonable amount" taken from his wages to make those payments. It's called "garnishing" and it's a real, genuine, legally allowable--and enforceable--thing.

[@silverhammer7779]

Fun random fact: If you commit a crime like fraud, and the prosecuting attorney chooses not to prosecute, that doesn't mean you're safe from prosecution. In the US there is a thing called statute of limitations. Which means if you commit a crime the prosecuting attorney can still bring charges up to 5+ years after the crime. Even if they say they won't be pursuing charges at that time.

[@angelinascott856]

honestly a will that has only one person receive money is suspicious, especially if the deceased was on good terms with the family. it would be contested

[@ACCER]

That usually depends on the relationship status of the person. It's not at all unusual for a person to leave everything to their spouse.....with a provision for things to be divided between the children should the spouse die first. My grandmother left everything to my father as she was a widow. If my father had died before her, everything would have been split equally between my brothers and I, except for a single property that would have gone to our mother.

[@HaesslichG]

[@ixxieangel]

If the father's will wasn't signed, notarized, and filed with the courts then the will isn't valid and would only be used as a potential reference for the distribution of assets but wouldn't be the final word and could be easily contested especially with his text message confession and camera footage.

[@annnichols3091]

I wonder if his father's lawyer has a copy of the will.

[@Denverbroncos87]

I remember a woman was on a podcast my wife listens to. She has a brother…. Well their grandparents passed away and decided to put everything in a will. Money, their valuables, and a property in Montana. The brother never came to see his grandparents, never even bothered to see them in the hospital. When everyone discussed the will. Brother: I want nothing, i don’t care about getting $10 for milk and eggs and a soda. Everyone: are you sure? Brother: yes! I can’t wait until they are gone Well when they passed away, the brother was rude at both funerals. His fiancé never saw that side of him. Well he eventually found out his parents and sister got an inheritance of 6 figures. The sister got the property in Montana. A lot of land. There is a home on the property. His father got a baseball card collection and Pokémon card collection. The mom got all sorts of valuable kitchenware. A huge Barbie doll collection and something else. Brother went apeshit . He had the nerve to tell his parents to put his grandparents on the phone. His reaction when he was told they passed away and he was at both funerals was priceless from what the sister said. All of sudden he is apologizing and now begging to get some sort of inheritance. Here’s the kicker! His fiancé left him. Oh and as an extra dagger, she was in the will. She got a 5 figure inheritance as well as really nice clothes. When the brother found that out, All of sudden he wanted to visit the grandparents in the hospital. Yet again being reminded they passed away and he was at the funeral. Now he regrets his actions and wishes he cared about them. Even apologizing to his parents that he regrets never visiting his grandparents. Sometimes people notice who cares and who don’t. You say you want nothing. You got nothing. Why be upset for getting what you want.

I know that here in the US, especially California, you are screwed. You're going to pay. Did you know that you can even aquire more to pay for not paying ? You think you skip payments till the kid turn 18? Think it's going to go away? Oh, no. You got to pay for the interest. Some people even have their Social Security checks garnished trying to pay. A lot like student loans, btw, filing bankruptcy will not save you.

[@ladyofthemasque]

Tip for anyone being forced to sign something against your will: Alter your signature. Make it different enough that even if you are videotapped signing it, you can explain to the court that you "signed under duress" because that's not how you ACTUALLY sign documents. (Btw, most celebrities have an autograph that is distinctly separate from how they sign checks, etc, so no one can forge one and try to cash in on it, so there is legal precedence!)
