  Second Estate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
second état) indicated the French nobility and (technically, though not in common use) royalty, the First Estate were the clergy, and the rest of the population constituted the Third Estate.
The Second Estate is traditionally divided into "noblesse d'épée" ("nobility of the sword") and "noblesse de robe" ("nobility of the gown"), the magisterial class that administered royal justice and civil government.
The notion of Estates of the realm also exists in Britain, where a close analogue to the French Second Estate would be the Lords Temporal.

 Third Estate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In France of the ancien régime and the age of the French Revolution, the term Third Estate (tiers état) indicated the generality of people which were not part of the clergy (the First Estate) nor of the nobility (the Second Estate).
The Third Estate comprised all those who were not members of the aristocracy or the clergy, including peasants, working people and the bourgeoisie.
The Third Estate, containing representatives of the bourgeois, asked for a greater share of representation than it had possessed in earlier centuries; they were given twice as many representatives, but since voting was to be by the three Estates rather than by individual representatives, this gave them no immediately meaningful advantage.

 ED84110: Mary Jill Gillespie, Appellant v. Estate of Michael G. McPherson, Respondent.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Second wife contends the court erred in granting the estate's motion for summary judgment and denying her motion for summary judgment because second wife was the named beneficiary on McPherson's life insurance policy and, therefore, is entitled to the proceeds of the life insurance.
Second wife subsequently filed her response to the Estate's motion for summary judgment asserting the Estate's motion failed to comply with Rule 74.04(c)(1), which requires the filing of a separate legal memorandum, and thus, the Estate's motion should be denied.
Second wife also filed her motion for summary judgment alleging she was entitled to the insurance proceeds as the named beneficiary on the life insurance policy where there was no evidence of intent to revoke second wife's rights as the beneficiary.

 Second Marriage Estate Planning
If the spouses leave all of their estate to each other, there is nothing stopping the surviving spouse from then changing his/her own Will to benefit only his/her heirs.
One way to alleviate this kind of disappointment of expectations of the children of one of the spouses is to provide in the deceased`s Will for a life estate to the surviving spouse rather than an outright gift of the deceased's assets.
One of the major benefits of a marriage contract is to establish and confirm that each party is aware of the assets being brought into the marriage by the other.
