30-2304.  Requirement that heir survive decedent for one hundred twenty hours.Any person who fails to survive the decedent by one hundred twenty hours is deemed to have predeceased the decedent for purposes of homestead allowance, exempt property and intestate succession, and the decedent's heirs are determined accordingly. If the time of death of the decedent or of the person who would otherwise be an heir, or the times of death of both, cannot be determined, and it cannot be established that the person who would otherwise be an heir has survived the decedent by one hundred twenty hours, it is deemed that the person failed to survive for the required period. This section is not to be applied where its application would result in a taking of intestate estate by the state under section 30-2305.Source  Laws 1974, LB 354, § 26, UPC § 2-104. Annotations A child, conceived after the biological father’s death through intrauterine insemination using his sperm and born within 9 months of his death, cannot inherit from the father as the father’s surviving issue because the child does not “survive” the father as required under this section.

30-2306.  Representation.If representation is called for by this code, the estate is divided into as many shares as there are surviving heirs in the nearest degree of kinship and deceased persons in the same degree who left issue who survive the decedent, each surviving heir in the nearest degree receiving one share and the share of each deceased person in the same degree being divided among his issue in the same manner.Source  Laws 1974, LB 354, § 28, UPC § 2-106. Annotations  There must be at least one survivor in a degree of kinship to apply the phrase "by right of representation." In re Estate of Evans, 20 Neb. App. 602, 827 N.W.2d 314 (2013). When an estate is divided "by representation" as provided for in this section into as many shares as there are surviving heirs in the nearest degree of kinship, the court looks first to the decedent's siblings, then to the decedent's siblings' children, and on down the generational line until reaching a generation containing surviving heirs.

NE Code § 30-2309 (2021)
2021 Nebraska Revised Statutes|Chapter 30 - Decedents' Estates; Protection of Persons and Property|30-2309 - Meaning of child and related terms.

30-2309.  Meaning of child and related terms.If, for purposes of intestate succession, a relationship of parent and child must be established to determine succession by, through, or from a person,(1) an adopted person is the child of an adopting parent and not of the natural parents except that adoption of a child by the spouse of a natural parent has no effect on the relationship between the child and that natural parent.(2) in cases not covered by (1), a person born out of wedlock is a child of the mother. That person is also a child of the father, if:(i) the natural parents participated in a marriage ceremony before or after the birth of the child, even though the attempted marriage is void; or(ii) the paternity is established by an adjudication before the death of the father or is established thereafter by strict, clear and convincing proof. The open cohabitation of the mother and alleged father during the period of conception shall be admissible as evidence of paternity. The paternity established under this subparagraph (ii) is ineffective to qualify the father or his kindred to inherit from or through the child unless the father has openly treated the child as his, and has not refused to support the child.Source  Laws 1974, LB 354, § 31, UPC § 2-109.Annotations  Although subdivision (2) of this section applies specifically to children born out of wedlock, it applies a fortiori to children born in wedlock. This subdivision does not give illegitimate children rights of inheritance superior to those of legitimate children. Divorce proceeding may constitute a final adjudication of paternity within the meaning of subdivision (2) of this section. In re Estate of Trew, 244 Neb. 490, 507 N.W.2d 478 (1993). A twice-adopted child may not inherit under the rules of intestacy from his first adoptive parent who has consented to the subsequent adoption and relinquished all rights of a parent in relation to that child. In re Estate of Luckey, Bailey v. Luckey, 206 Neb. 53, 291 N.W.2d 235 (1980). Conflicting evidence of paternity does not prevent a trial court from determining heirs under subsection (2) of this section by clear and convincing evidence because the trial court deserves deference in weighing the credibility of the witnesses and deciding what evidence to believe. In re Estate of Brionez, 8 Neb. App. 913, 603 N.W.2d 688 (2000). This section does not impose a written notice requirement on an objector. In re Estate of Brionez, 8 Neb. App. 913, 603 N.W.2d 688 (2000). Under this section and the Nebraska Probate Code, an adopted child is an individual entitled to take as a child, and therefore an adopted child is included as a lineal descendant of its adoptive parent under the statutory definition of "issue."

NE Code § 30-2310 (2021)
2021 Nebraska Revised Statutes|Chapter 30 - Decedents' Estates; Protection of Persons and Property|30-2310 - Advancements; method of determining.

30-2310.  Advancements; method of determining.If a person dies intestate as to all his estate, property which he gave in his lifetime to an heir is treated as an advancement against the latter's share of the estate only if declared in a contemporaneous writing by the decedent or acknowledged in writing by the heir to be an advancement. For this purpose the property advanced is valued as of the time the heir came into possession or enjoyment of the property or as of the time of death of the decedent, whichever first occurs. If the recipient of the property fails to survive the decedent, the property is not taken into account in computing the intestate share to be received by the recipient's issue, unless the declaration or acknowledgment provides otherwise.Source  Laws 1974, LB 354, § 32, UPC § 2-110.
