Bychkova Svitlana S., Bilianska Nataliia V., Fedosieieva Tetiana R. Implementation of the right to inheritance: problems of theory and practice
The article is devoted to the research into problematic aspects of exercising the right of inheritance by different categories of entities. As a result of the research conducted, recommendations for improvements to Ukrainian legislation have been developed. The status of a child born after 10 months and as a result of the use of assisted reproductive technologies after the death of one spouse should be determined at the legislative level. It also would be expedient in the Civil Code of Ukraine to fix the testator’s rights to settle the issue of birth of his children in the will through the use of assisted reproductive technologies after his death and to appoint such children as heirs. In addition, the Civil Code of Ukraine should provide for the possibility of individuals recognised as missing, to be heirs, and to secure the right to have a guardian over the property of such persons.
