Short Message:	I thought you might like to read this article on the Israel Center website: ---------------------------------------------- Lesson # 508 (part 1) - Laws of Primogeniture Primogeniture is the halachic provision whereby a firstborn, if male, receives a special portion of the estate of his father… In order to be the one whom the halacha recognizes as the firstborn, he must be born while his father is still alive. There is an opinion that if the father was in a coma when the child was born and died without recovering, then the child is not considered the firstborn for estate purposes. The verse states that the father “must recognize the firstborn” and if he is in a coma he cannot recognize him. http://www.ouisrael.org/tidbits/detail/979/
