I agree with the widow. His will says that for any child of his son to be included in the will the son had to marry the mother of the child within 6 months. Obviously a gay man can't be a mother so he's out of luck.
First off, there clearly is a marriage, because marriage is defined by law. Second, and more to the point,calling this man's spouse a "thing" demonstrates your utter lack of human values. Take your hateful comments somewhere else.
Agreed, but what's in question here? Does the man love his wife more than he loves his father's money?
Me I wouldn't contest the will. I would see it as dirty money. Money used to insult my loved one. I would go to the old buzzards grave and take one huge dump tho.
Considering the likely financial status of the son and the relativly paltry amount of the trust, I would suggest, unless the son likes legal fights, he just walk away from the money.
....and here you are defending trust fund kids. Think about it, this is pretty funny.
I don't consider $180,000 a "trust fund" baby despite it being a trust fund. Basically he has most of his college paid for. He's not getting an 8 figure trust fund to allow him to live like a King for the rest of his life. Quit changing the subject.
Has anyone considered whether the mother of the child WANTS to be married to the guy? Even if the guy was to divorce his partner and enter into a sham marriage to collect the inheritance?
I'm not sure you can condition inheritance on compelling non-interested parties to contract for marriage.... what is in it for the mother?
In a legal sense this child might not have a mother. If the child is the biological offspring of one of the parents and has been adopted by his spouse, the child may legally have two fathers.

The son might very well like legal fights. He is a judge.
