Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under many legal systems, children born during a marriage are presumed to be the legitimate offspring of the couple. However, siblings (C & D) have the standing to challenge the legitimacy of a sibling (E) born after the death of one parent (A) if there are grounds to believe that the child is not a biological offspring of the deceased parent. This is because the legitimacy of a child can have implications on inheritance and familial rights.
