Q: Degree of kindred state of nv Order of succession in case of sister intestate with no children or spouse
Civil law part 300: 107:1941;1931ncl 9882.300
A:
If your sister's parent were alive when she died, the estate goes to them. If only one parent was alive when your sister died, the estate goes to the single parent who was alive when she died. If both her parents predeceased her, her estate will be divided evenly among all of her siblings. If a sibling predeceased your sister but has left children, then the children of the predeceased sibling would take the share of the predeceased sibling.
If a person entitled to part of your sister's estate was alive when she died but has since died, that share would go that person's estate.
