Man has 4 children (3 male/1 female). He leaves his family home (worth €500,000) to his daughter in his will and his bank accounts(worth €50,000) to his 3 sons along with the residue of the estate.
The man develops Alzheimers and he is made a ward of court. The Court orders that his house is sold to pay for his treatment/nursing home.
The man dies. The gift of the house to the daughter lapses so the money left over from the proceeds of the sale of the house (minus money used for deceased's nursing care) falls into the residue. The sons are residuary legatees so get it.
The daughter is left with nothing. Can the daughter bring a S. 117 application to challenge to the will or do anything at all?
