Husband Can't Cut Wife Out Of Will For years Mr. and Mrs. John Doe have been fighting bitterly. Finally, John, on his deathbed, hits on the ultimate solution: He'll cut her out of his will. Can he do it? No, says the Illinois State Bar association-at least not in Illinois. The ISBA states that under Illinois law a husband cannot disinherit his wife after his death. He can divorce her before he dies, but if they are still married at the time of his death, she's entitled to part of his estate. The law states that if they have children or grandchildren surviving, the widow is entitled to at least orte-third of his estate. And if' there are no surviving offspring she has at least one half coming to her. If the husband were to write a will disinheriting his wife she could simply renounce it and claim her legal share. And this law would protect men as well as women, the ISBA notes. If the wife were to die, her widower would be entitled to at least one-half to one-third of her estate, depending on whether there are any children, despite what the will might Say. The ISBA points out that this does not mean that any will written before a marriage is automatically invalid after the person making it marries. Under Illinois law the will a single person makes remains in effect after his or her marriage, although it does become subject to the legal claims of the spouse. If the couple is divorced after the will is written, any bequests to the spouse provided in the will are automatically revoked unless there is an addition to the will specifically stating otherwise. And of course, if there is no will at all, the estate is automatically divided ac­ cording to rules set by Illinois law. The surviving spouse would get one-third and the remaining two-thirds would be divided equally among the children or their descendants. If there are no children or grandchildren, the surviving spouse would get it all. Trouble Collecting Debts? Maybe Garnishment Is The Answer A creditor who has been having difficulty collecting bad debts might find the answer through a court-ordered gar­ nishment. Illinois law states that a creditor after having obtained a judgment for his debt may obtain a court order requiring the debtor's property to be held, sold or transferred to compensate for the debt. The most common form of garnishment is attachment of the wages of an employee for the benefit of the creditors. When the law was enacted, it provided that wages, salaries, commissions, bonuses and other regular payments due the debtor of up to $65 a week for the head of a household and $50 a week for employees who are not heads of families were exempt. And it said the debtor may keep up to 85 per cent of the regular income up to $200 if that is more than the $65 or $50 minimum. In addition, it states that' certain payments Tare exempt from garnishment. For in­ stance, workmen's com­ pensation payments, pension . funds of retired firemen, correctional employees, teachers and judges may not be j attached. All life insurance proceeds are exempt from garnishment. Garnishment, thus, has been - made a double edged sword by the lawmakers. It can be a useful tool for a creditor to collect his debts, but it cannot be used to impoverish the debtor. Want your son to have character?
