I think the general consensus is that if you can identify a specific property that has been stolen from you in an estate, you can reclaim it (from the estate). But claims against someone who purchased the stolen goods unknowingly, or general claims from one group to another, like a common English person against the Queen, a colored person against a random white man, or a Palestinian against an Israelite, those are not valid.

- visarga 10y ago> claims against someone who purchased the stolen goods unknowingly ... are not valid I am not sure about that. A stolen good cannot be legally buyed from the thiefs.
- CossieRay 10y agoNo, you won't kill it so casually. It is: "legally bought from the thieves".
- baursak 10y agoSo if I unknowingly buy a stolen bike off Craigslist, I get to keep it? If the owner later identifies it with proof and requests me to return it, do I get to say "sorry, no" to him?
