An interesting dispute on the right to administration of a deceased’s estate.
The deceased made several wills cross border at different times. The deceased was a mainland citizen but subsequently gained permanent HKID in Hong Kong, and contracted a marriage soon after the making of a last will in China. The common conception that a subsequent marriage would invalidate an earlier will is not necessarily the case, and there are issues of what laws govern the succession or validity of the will. Is it intention of the deceased ? Or a person’s domicile that dominates ?
