COMPULSORY PORTION REDUCTION FOR LACK OF CONTACTS? (OGH 19.03.2015, 6 OB 226/14Z)
July 21st, 2015The compulsory portion of a child can be reduced by half, if there was no close relationship between the testator and the beneficiary. The reduction can be excepted, if the testator refused the personal contact with the beneficiary on purpose. Basically there can only be a refusal to a tried approach, but the beneficiary is excepted if it was not possible to contact the testator due to previously morally reprehensive behaviour.
