Calculation Steps:

  • Mother gets the prescribed share of 1/3 (Rule 6a).
  • Maternal Brother gets the prescribed share of 1/6 (Rule 12a).
  • Distribute the remaining shares according to relative priority (Rule 14)
  • Total shares are still remaining to be distributed. Shares should now be increased proportionally among all heirs except the spouse (Rule 19).
