Short description: 
PROBATE-ILLEGITIMATE-PARENT                                                

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Probate Act of 1975.  Provides that a parent  may  not      
   inherit  from  an  illegitimate decedent unless the parent, during the      
   decedent's lifetime, acknowledged the decedent as the parent's  child,      
   established  a  parental relationship with the decedent, and supported      
   the decedent as the parent's child.  Notwithstanding the preceding,  a      
   parent  may  not  inherit  from an illegitimate decedent if the parent      
   abandoned the  decedent  and  that  abandonment  continued  until  the      
   decedent's  death.   (Now, the mother and her descendants, but not the      
   father  and  his  descendants,  may  inherit  from   an   illegitimate      
   decedent.)
