Unworthiness disqualification

Failed to report – not only for the purpose of investigation. It must enable the investigation to proceed to the
prosecution of the case

DISINHERITANCE

- Valid disinheritance would not only encompass to intestate succession

- Once disqualified, disqualified ka sa lahat

Grounds for disinheritance must be existing at the time of execution

Difference between guilty in ART 919 and convicted in ART 920.

- In ART 920, there be final judgement

- In ART 919, no need conviction because it is already an act of disrespect to the parents

Unlike if the parent will attempt, which is unbelieveable, law is suspicious that parents will really attempt against your
life hence final judgement is necessary in ART 920

ABANDONMENT IN ART 55 IS ALSO APPLICABLE IN ABANDONMENT IN SUCCESSION PLEASE READ

In loss of parental authority as grounds for disinheritance – the heir must have done something to the testator

It must be intentional for it to be ground for disinheritance. NOT ALL LOSS OF PARENTAL AUTHORITY ARE GROUNDS
FOR DISINHERITANCE

If the heir will be disinherited but the will turns out to be void, the heir can no longer be disqualified based on
unworthiness because the rule on disinheritance has been availed of

Article 43 – guilty spouse, after decree of nullity, is already disqualified to inherit

Read ART 50 – effects of nullity of marriage

In Article 63 – the will prior to the declaration of legal separation, provisions in favor of offending spouse shall be void

BUT IF WILL WAS MADE AFTER, ARTICLE 63 IS NOT AVAILABLE. He is only disqualified to disinherit based on intestate.
