[WSBAPT] predeceased heir

[Shannon Jones]

Listmates, A Will gives ½ of the residual estate to someone who does not survive the testator, but the Will does not condition the gift on survivorship. The deceased donee has no Will and her estate passed by intestacy to her only child, who is still living. I have identified that child to receive the ½ gift of residue. In response, that child's children are making a claim to part of the ½ residual gift as "issue" of the deceased done (ie. lineal descendants of their deceased grandparent). I am getting a little lost in the statutes. Is this a legitimate claim?  - Shannon
