Re: property

One would have to look at the deeds and divorce decree to come up with an accurate answer. I would think that the interest that the deceased person would have go as his estate did, that is if there is he/she had a will, then the will would control unless the divorce decree and deeds provided otherwise. Consult a local attorney for a more complete answer. There are a many more questions that need to be answered here.
