Abstract

The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of the peculiarities of establishing legal facts necessary for inheritance by disabled dependents under Article 1148 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. There are two mechanisms of inheritance for dependents: when they are included in the circle of heirs by law, and when they inherit independently. The main attention is paid to the problems of proving the facts of incapacity on the day of opening of the inheritance, being dependent on the testator (including the assessment criteria of "systematic assistance" and "the main source of income") and cohabitation (for persons who are not included in the circle of heirs). It is emphasized that evaluative categories in law are the core of the problem of establishing a fact. The author examines the specifics of proving these facts in court, identifies typical problems and contradictions in judicial practice associated with their assessment. Based on the analysis, conclusions are made on the need to improve legislative formulations and law enforcement approaches to ensure the effective implementation of the social protection function of the institution of inheritance by dependents. Promising ways to solve the identified problems are considered.
