If a person dies without leaving a will, the assets of the deceased's estate pass under the intestacy rules. These vary according to whether or not there is a surviving spouse, or surviving children, parents, brothers and sisters and so on. If a person's will does not deal with all of the assets of the estate, there may be a partial intestacy.
