Section 132 — Succession Act 2006 (NSW)

A relative may be entitled to participate in the distribution of an intestate estate in separate capacities.
Note. For example, suppose that an intestate dies leaving no spouse and no surviving relatives except children of a deceased maternal aunt and paternal uncle who had a child in common as well as children of other unions. In this case, the child of the union between the maternal aunt and the paternal uncle would be entitled to participate in the estate both as representative of the maternal aunt and as representative of the paternal uncle.
