Multiple Choice
A husband and wife own Lot A as joint tenants and Lot B as tenants in common. The husband's will reads: "I leave Lot A to my son John and Lot B to my daughter Mary." Who takes what when the husband dies?
A) The son, John, gets Lot A and daughter Mary gets Lot B, just as their father wished and designated in his will.
B) John will get Lot A but Mary will not get Lot B because it was co-owned with the mother as tenants in common, so the mother takes Lot B as the other tenant-in-common.
C) Mary will get all of Lot B but John will not get Lot A because it was co-owned with the mother in joint-tenancy, so the mother takes Lot A as the surviving joint tenant.
D) Mary will get her father's interest in Lot B, but John will only get a life tenancy in Lot A.
E) Mary will get her father's interest in Lot B, but John will get no interest in Lot A.
