給您一個比較清楚的說明 (資料來源: http://www.naylaw.com/blog/share-estate-surviving-spouse-receive-children-previous-marriage-probate-attorney-portland-oregon/)
If a probate is required and the deceased person did not have a valid will, the deceased spouse’s assets would be distributed according to the laws of intestacy for the State of Oregon. Generally, these laws reflect how most people would want assets distributed at their death. In a simple family situation, everything would go to the surviving spouse. If the deceased spouse left children from a previous marriage, the surviving spouse would receive one-half of the deceased spouse’s probate assets and the children from the previous marriage would share the other one-half.
