Hi. My dad died a few years ago and left me (his step son) and my step brother (his biological son) his 2 acres of land. In the will he gave my mom Usufruct over the property. She is allowing me to live on the property but my step brother thinks that since I'm living here I have to give him half of the value. So I guess my question is since my mom has Usufruct and I'm living there, can he legally make me pay? I'm under the impression that I wont have to pay him until she dies or remarries. She told me that even if I wanted to pay him it wouldn't really be legal until the rights go to us anyway. Thank you
