The case of Gary Coleman

By now, you are probably aware that he has died to young. My question to you is who should get ownership of Gary. The wife or the parents.

I am not sure but I think the Parents should. The ex-wife barely knows him. She is a bit young. He took her name off of almost everything. I imagined he forgot about the will. Yet, I can not shake the fact that she was in the house. She was still with him. What is your opinion it?

 

No one should get ownership of him, he was a human being, not a piece of furniture. However whomever is named in his will is the one who will legally inherit. I think that's what you were getting at Archangel?

 

You usually inherit property. so you can't say that she legally inherited him if he is not property. This is the first time I have heard someone say they inherited a person. I could say she received his remains to tickle your fancy and that was close to what I meant.I just have not seen anyone receive something that is not alive and not own it while being given full rights to do whatever they want with it.

 

Okay, he's already dead, so I assumed you were talking about who should inherit his estate. So you want to know who should have rights to his remains?

 

Yea, that is what I meant.

 

Ah sorry, I'm slow tonight! I would assume that is also covered in his will, or by some type of directive, if not it's whomever is considered to be next of kin. If he's still legally married, that would be the wife.
