Eligibility of ‘members of a household’ to contest a will

When contesting a will a ‘member of a household’ of which the deceased was also a member is only eligible to contest the will if dependency on the deceased at some time can be shown. The ‘household’ must come within the usual definition of the court of that term before the person can be declared eligible. A member must share living arrangements on a regular basis with the deceased.
