What does this covenant periods mean?

Answered by attorney James E. Reed
Estate Planning lawyer at Vandervoort, Christ & Fisher, P.C.
What this means is that the recorded restrictive covenants remain effective for 25 years. Thereafter, they automatically renew for 10 year periods, unless a majority of the owners of the affected property approve and record an amendment to the covenants. So in years 25, 35, 45, 55, and so on, the covenant may be amended. Also, generally, in other years, the covenants cannot be amended except by an amendment that would take effect at the end of the current 10 year renewal period. For example, 28 years after the covenants were recorded, they cannot be amended so that in year 28 or 29, the amendment becomes effective. Instead, they cannot be amended until 35 years after they were first recorded.

How much of a claim does my husband's family have to the estate?

Thomas C. Bulman
Answered by attorney Thomas C. Bulman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bulman Law Associates PLLC
You should ask the attorney that settled the wrongful death case. He should have retained an estate lawyer to help with the various claims of your husband's relatives. If he had a will, that will control distribution. If not, then the claims will be treated differently. If your injury lawyer didn't plan for this, contact an estate lawyer yourself.

If a married man dies and leaves everything to his son in a valid will, is his surviving spouse entitled to anything?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
In Idaho, you have community property. To the extent his property was community, you are entitled to one-half. If he bequeathed separate property, you may be entitled to about $60,000 of the property. You should contact an attorney and go through the details with him or her.
