The mother gets one-sixth, the daughters two-thirds, and the wife one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The remainder is to be divided among the full brothers and sisters, with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is then divided into 336 shares: the mother receives 56 shares, the wife 42 shares, each daughter 56 shares, each full brother two shares, and each full sister one share. We emphasize that inheritance matters are serious and complex, and they must be referred to the courts to verify all heirs, wills, debts, and rights before distribution.
