Meaning of nemo est heres viventis | Babel Free

Definitions

“No one is heir of a living person”: the inheritance of an estate is decided only upon the death of its owner, and nobody is “heir” while that person is alive (only heir apparent or heir presumptive).

New-Latin

Examples

“Suum enim nasci dicimus, qui post mortem nascitur: quoniam sicut viuentis nemo est haeres, ita nemo testatori viuo suus haeres nascitur.”

Indeed, we say that his [heir] is born, when [the heir] is born after his death: for just as no one is heir of a living person, so no one is born heir to a living testator.
