Only the descendants and the spouse or registered partner of the deceased are entitled to a compulsory portion. All other relatives (e.g. progenitors) have no such entitlement. These (abstract) persons entitled to a compulsory portion are entitled if they would have had a statutory right to inherit if the testator had not made a testamentary disposition in favor of other persons. In particular, unworthiness to inherit and waiver of inheritance exclude the compulsory portion.
