This legal document is a draft for a disinheritance lawsuit ('Ação de Deserdação') in Brazil. It's based on the Brazilian Civil Code (Código Civil). The plaintiff is seeking to disinherit the defendant based on acts of indignity as defined in Article 1814 of the Civil Code.
The document refers to the four-year statute of limitations for disinheritance actions (Article 1815, Código Civil). It highlights that a final conviction in a criminal case related to these acts of indignity automatically leads to disinheritance, even without a separate court order for disinheritance.
The plaintiff is a necessary heir to the deceased, and the defendant is an heir who committed an act of indignity. The lawsuit seeks to confirm the disinheritance already written in the will, due to the defendant's actions and failure of reconciliation attempts.
