The rules in LA for a case where a person dies intestate without a surviving spouse but with liiving descendants are that the property is split amont the children (or their descendants if the children do not survive). In this case it seems that the property is split four ways - between the three surviving children and the one grandchild who was parented by the fourth child (who is now deceased). The fifih child, also deceased, had no descendants and so does not affect the split of property. See: Wills and Testaments

The article that ebaines linked to suggests that a "succession" is Louisiana's term for a probate estate.

Please start a new thread rather than using someone else's thread.
You mean to ask can they "give it away with out talking to the other kids... "? No. Apply to be appointed personal representative and then get the court to order them to get it back for the estate.
