Abstract

This commentary focuses on three of the inequities which result from the present scheme: (1) the discriminatory treatment of a second or successive spouse, (2) the possibility that a surviving spouse may receive a windfall beyond the designated statutory share, and (3) the "loophole" which readily allows disinheritance of the surviving spouse.
