Rivalry of Patrmony Theory 3
Rivalry of Patrmony Theory 3
DISCUSSION
Rivalry is the act of competing for the same thing against another
person. Often, a rivalry starts when people want the same reward. It also
refers to a person or group that tries to defeat or be more successful than
another person or group. The word patrimony comes from Middle English
patrimoine, patrimonie, from Anglo-French patremoine, and from the Latin
origin of the word patrimony is pater, or "father," and mōnium means "state
or condition." So, patrimony refers to the things that a person inherits from
their father or other ancestors. This can include money, property, or other
valuable possessions.
News 5: Frontline: A live-in partner died inside the Victory Liner bus in
Nueva Ecija; they were shot by gun for hire men. According to the report, the
main reason for the shooting was heritage. It is said that before the crime
happened, the mother (the victim) and her son had a conflict that led to a
lawsuit. The son of the victim became the person of interest, but he denied
the accusation against him. Later on, one of the gunmen was arrested and
stated that they were only ordered by an unknown person who called them on
the phone.
Tadhana: "Hating Kapatid": The documentary is all about three siblings who
duel about patrimony. The patrimony was given to the youngest child who
was adopted, so the two real children maltreated the heir because they were
jealous and angry. The oldest child deceived the heir so they could get a
share of the patrimony.
RECOMMENDATIONS
For the parents that will give heritage to their descendants, they should give
their heritage equally to their compulsory heir and not be biased on who
should receive either a big or small share. Also, it's better to hold a family
meeting to discuss your final desires and arrangements. You do not
absolutely need to negotiate what and how much each individual will receive
because this is always open to modification by you. However, you can
describe how you are splitting the property. The parents should treat them
fairly, because that's when the conflict starts. Withal, they should make a will
before they die describing the estate planning aims and intentions to avoid
conflict between compulsory heirs and other relatives that were intending to
vie for or claim the legacy. When it comes to patrimony, all the members of
the family will become greedy.
For the compulsory heirs, they should ask a lawyer to know what their rights
are and the exact share that they will receive of their parents heritage. They
should know how to divide their properties, what exactly they will receive, and
how much of each property will only be given to them. With that, it can avoid
disputes and make settlements with each compulsory heir.
For those victims who were deprived and deceived of their patrimony,
they should ask for help from a lawyer and not be afraid to complain. When
they start to feel that their competitor will harm them or that there's a menace
to them, they should report it immediately to the law enforcers. This victim
should also complain if there is an unequal distribution of their patrimony.
To the professional lawyers, they should provide free legal assistance about
the rights of each member of the family when it comes to sharing the family's
legacy. This free legal assistance will inform or assist the client's concerns
about the patrimony, about his rights to the heritage, and about any other
concerns that the compulsory heir may have.
