Supreme Court of Oklahoma

In the Matter of the Estate of Parker

May 2, 20232023 OK 50

Summary

The Oklahoma Supreme Court held that both 84 O.S.2011 §§ 132 and 133 apply to the estate of Ronald W. Parker, and that the specific workers’ compensation bequest to his brother is exempt from apportionment because it reflects the testator’s obvious intent; the case was remanded for the trial court to determine the proper division of the estate.
