11.05.030 Disposition of Joint Property and Rights

(a) One-half (1/2) of any property held by the slayer and the decedent as joint tenants, joint owners, or joint obligees shall pass upon the death of the decedent to his estate, and the other half (1/2) shall pass to his estate upon the death of the slayer unless the slayer obtains a separation or severance of the property, or a decree granting partition.

(b) As to property held jointly by three (3) or more persons, including the slayer and the decedent, any enrichment which would have accrued to the slayer as a result of the death of the decedent shall pass to the estate of the decedent. If the slayer becomes the final survivor, one-half (1/2) of the property shall immediately pass to the estate of the decedent, and the other half (1/2) shall pass to his estate upon the death of the slayer unless the slayer obtains a separation or severance of the property or a decree granting partition.

(c) The provisions of this section shall not affect any enforceable agreement between the parties or any trust arising because a greater proportion of the property has been contributed by one party than the other.
