The rights and obligations of a person are transmitted to their heirs upon their death by way of succession. This was illustrated in the case of Tin Tin, who owned a property that she leased to TRCDC for 50 years, with TRCDC having the right of first refusal to purchase the property. Tin Tin later sold the property to her daughter Annie without first offering it to TRCDC. The Court of Appeals partly modified the trial court's decision, ruling that Annie was bound by the terms of the lease as Tin Tin's heir, and that TRCDC's right of first refusal should be recognized.
