Section 6452 Of Chapter 2. Parent And Child Relationship From California Probate Code >> Division 6. >> Part 2. >> Chapter 2.
6452
. (a) A parent does not inherit from or through a child on the
basis of the parent and child relationship if any of the following
apply:
(1) The parent's parental rights were terminated and the
parent-child relationship was not judicially reestablished.
(2) The parent did not acknowledge the child.
(3) The parent left the child during the child's minority without
an effort to provide for the child's support or without communication
from the parent, for at least seven consecutive years that continued
until the end of the child's minority, with the intent on the part
of the parent to abandon the child. The failure to provide support or
to communicate for the prescribed period is presumptive evidence of
an intent to abandon.
(b) A parent who does not inherit from or through the child as
provided in subdivision (a) shall be deemed to have predeceased the
child, and the intestate estate shall pass as otherwise required
under Section 6402.
