I am looking for the legal position here.
No. I have no intention of taking on the local council. It seems that I should according to you follow another posters advice and draw straws to decide who should take ownership of our parents grave. That's a great idea. Thanks dereko1969 excellent advice as always.Unfair response to MF1.
You seem to think that because something is included in a will it can over-ride anything, that's simply not the case. Bronte pointed out a solution. But go ahead and take on the council rather than come to an agreement with your siblings.

No, I have not gotten the legal situation. Can you quote the relevant legislation. I have just been told the local Council's bye laws, which I accept, by the way. Everything can be questioned. I am just trying to have a debate about this here on AAM so I am not sure why you are saying "end of story". Do you not want this thread to continue Leo?You've already gotten the legal situation. You can not force them to accept multiple names. End of story.

If the will had specifically said that the ownership of the grave was to be transferred into the 4 named people, would the council have to transfer it in to the 4 named people or could they have overridden the wishes of the owner and insisted that it be transferred into one name.
I suppose then that everything in a will can be challenged as they are only "wishes".How could a wish expressed in a will be legally enforceable? I could state that I wished to be buried in a 400m pyramid on O'Connell Street all I like. But it's not going to happen. A wish is just a wish, it can't set legally binding terms on other parties.
Thanks Vanilla. That might work. The thing is, everything was divided equally and we don't want just one of us owning the grave. We all want to own it. It we leave things as they are then all four of us inherit the grave but there is no legal record of this. It is presently in the name of our deceased father.What about doing a simple deed of trust that the four of you nominate one to hold in trust for all four, then get the grave transferred into that persons name.
