The Supreme Court accepted the cassation appeal filed by heirs J. M. and K. M. against a lower court's decision regarding inheritance acceptance. The heirs failed to declare their acceptance or rejection of the estate within the statutory period, while the Bank and the municipality argued for the estate's transfer. The court ruled that the appeal must be examined to determine if the heirs' inaction was excusable or constituted a valid waiver of inheritance rights.
