Ruling 2756

If the deceased has no offspring, the child of his son receives the share of the deceased’s son even if she is a girl, and the child of his daughter receives the share of the deceased’s daughter’s share even if he is a boy. For example, if the deceased has a grandson from his daughter and a granddaughter from his son, the estate is divided into three parts: one part is inherited by the grandson from his daughter and two parts are inherited by the granddaughter from his son. With regard to grandchildren inheriting, it is not a condition that their father and mother be deceased.
