Are we talking consecutive or overlapping? If you have more than 10 relatives die in overlapping mourning periods, can you negotiate some sort of Super Mourning period that will fast track the whole thing?

Yes but you must check 'yes' on box 17c on form 1857 and file Addendum b487 with a memorandum from the local law enforcement that you are not responsible for murdering your relatives

I have over 150 second cousins and cousins once removed. I would not have a good time.

That seems extremely inefficient. How do you even get anything done as a society at that rate, if people constantly have to retire to mourn?

TIL In Confucianism, there are five grades of mourning obligation, depending on one's relation to the person that died. The death of one's mother or father requires 27 months of mourning while second cousins or first cousins once removed only require 3 months of mourning.
