Applied probability and time series, the respective areas in which Joe Gani and Ted Hannan made their names, meet in the classical problem of the law of succession. Much of the work on this problem assumes a multinomial distribution for the observations. In this paper assumptions are made which imply a non-multinomial distribution, which in turn implies a rather different approach to that used in the multinomial case to estimating probabilities of novel events.
