Abstract

In Texas, the statutes are in conflict as to whether an adopted person is emphatically given the right to inherit intestate through and from their biological parents. This Note will delve into the history of adoption law, the adoption law process, differences in the statutes, and suggest how the Texas Legislature can mend these statutes to be in harmony with each other. For the purposes of this Note, when adoptee is mentioned it only refers to a child who was adopted as a minor.
