Die gesetzliche Grundlage, die für Ansprüche aus unerlaubter Handlung findet sich in Art. 49 ff. türk. OGB.

Art. 49 türk. OGB, die sich weitgehend an die schweizerische Regelung lehnt, lautet wie folgt:

"Wer einem andern mit Verschulden und widerrechtlicher Handlung Schaden zufügt, wird ihm zum Ersatze verpflichtet.

Ebenso ist zum Ersatze verpflichtet, wer einem andern in einer gegen die guten Sitten verstoßenden Weise absichtlich Schaden zufügt, auch wenn diese schädliche Handlung gesetzlich nicht verboten ist.

Diese allgemeine Norm, den Grundsatz der Verschuldenshaftung statuiert, findet auf alle Sachverhalte Anwendung, soweit die Verschuldenshaftung nicht im konkreten Fall durch eine spezielle Regelung verdrängt wird.

Inheritance Fraud Lawsuits: Legal Nature, Requirements, And Litigation Process

Inheritance fraud (muris muvazaası) is one of the most common inheritance-related disputes in Turkish legal practice. It typically arises when a deceased person (the decedent) transfers real property to one heir by disguising what is, in reality, a gratuitous transfer (gift) as a sale or a contract of maintenance until death, with the intention of depriving the remaining heirs of their inheritance rights. Although such transactions appear legally valid on their face, they do not reflect the parties' true intentions and are therefore evaluated under the legal principles governing sham transactions (muvazaa).
