Is the biological mother entitled to her deceased daughters belongings over the next of kin?

In most cases, the next of kin, such as a spouse or children, have primary rights to a deceased person's belongings. However, if the biological mother is the legal next of kin or if there are no surviving spouses or children, she may be entitled to her daughter's belongings. The specific laws regarding inheritance can vary by jurisdiction, so it's essential to consider local laws or any wills that may outline the distribution of property.
