  1. Morris is 90 years old. Sadly, Judy passed away the day after celebrating 65 years together! She was 85 and died without a Will. Morris and Judy never married, nor did they ever make their relationship legal under civil union. They did, however, have two children, Nick and Nicky, who are both adults and with families. Unfortunately, both Nick and Nicky had not spoken to their parents for 20 years and did not attend their mother's funeral. The family fight stemmed from their parents not wanting to give their children any more money as both received a million each to start their own business, yet despite the verbal agreement, both spent the money on fancy cars, extravagant vacations etc. within a year of receiving the money. The day after the funeral, Nick and Nicky called their father to find out when they were getting their inheritance. Which statements are incorrect?
