Who has the right to the retention?
Retention is due to descendants, spouse and family of a deceased, who would be called to inheritance and due to the disposition of the deceased did not receive an appropriate share in the inheritance.If case they are permanently unable to work or under age, they are entitled to two-thirds of the share of inheritance, which will be to the statutory inheritance, while in other cases – half of the value of the share. During calculating the amount, donations made by the testator and received part as the heir or legatee, should be taken into account. Retention doesn't entitle to descendants, spouses and parents, who have been disinherited.
