CHENNAI : My nephew is a divorcee and married for the second time after paying final settlement to his first wife through court. There was a child in his first marriage, but the paternity was disputed by our family since we believe the child was not my nephew’s. We have not raised this issue in any court of law. Will the child have any stake in the property inherited by my nephew?

The child was born to your niece-in-law while the marriage was in force. The presumption is that the father of the child is your nephew. Mere suspicion will not help. If the child is a biological child, then it automatically gets a share in the property. Even if the child was illegally born, it was for your nephew
to have repudiated it. Now it is too late.
