Practice question: Acceptance and Repudiation of the Inheritance

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

Two heirs act differently: one receives a price for renouncing to all co-heirs; another makes the stipulated gratuitous renunciation to exactly the co-heirs entitled by accretion. They claim identical 1050 treatment solely because both documents say renunciation. Which is best?
  1. Every identical label guarantees identical legal effects.
  2. The price and statutory exception produce different deemed-acceptance results.
  3. Neither operative facts nor price may be considered.
  4. Both necessarily create new wills.
  5. Only the larger handwriting decides.
