The mother and father each receive one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The daughters receive two-thirds. The grandmother, full brothers, and full sister do not inherit due to the presence of the mother and father. The inheritance is divided into 15 shares: two shares for the mother, two shares for the father, three shares for the husband, and eight shares for the daughters (two shares for each daughter). Inheritance cases should be referred to the courts.
