More details to this question:
My brother and I are joint tenants to a house in California. Can my brother who is married create a will to pass his ownership onto his spouse and children bypassing the right of survivorship? I am single. Would this be under family or real estate laws?
1 ANSWER
No. Property owned as joint tenants passes by operation of law, outside of a will.
