	Intestate Succession -- Texas
		The intestate distribution scheme in Texas is derived mainly from three sections of the Probate Code: § 38 (distribution of property of an unmarried decedent and the separate property of a married decedent), § 45 (distribution of the community property of a married decedent), and § 43 (determination of the type of distribution).
		If only one parent survives and the intestate is also survived by at least one sibling or a descendant of a sibling (e.g., niece or nephew), then the surviving parent receives one-half of the estate with the remaining one-half passing to the siblings and their descendants.
		If the intestate was in the midst of a real estate transaction at the time of death, it may be significant to determine whether the intestate’s interest is real or personal property, especially if the intestate was married and the property is separate.
