Posthumously conceived children and social security entitlements; or things (not) to do in Little Rock when you’re dead
(2008)
Abstract
This case note examines a number of recent decisions of the Arkansas state courts concerning the entitlements of posthumously conceived children under social security and workers compensation law. These decisions highlight the differences in approach which have been adopted in this important area and the difficulties caused by the lack of a uniform approach in federal law.
