Re: no_will_tre_important
Under California Law re intestacy: The surviving spouse gets all of the community property. As for separate property, where there is a surviving spouse, no children/issues, but his parent or parents are alive, then the parent or parents get 1/2 and the wife gets 1/2. If both of his parents are deceased, then all of his surviving siblings and issues of deceased siblings would share 1/2 and the wife gets 1/2.
