interment rights

Interment rights refer to the legal authority to bury and maintain a deceased person's remains in a specific cemetery plot. These rights determine who has the permission to place a body in a particular grave, as well as the ongoing care, maintenance, and visitation associated with that site. Typically, these rights are purchased or inherited and can be transferred or sold. Understanding interment rights helps ensure proper handling, respect, and legal compliance regarding burial sites, and they often include rules about modifications or memorialization of the plot.
