Possibly so. The Court will first examine whether your brother’s widow may be considered “an interested party”‘ according to the law, meaning, whether she has an objective financial interest in your father’s estate, in the present (not a future interest). If the answer is yes, then she may file her objection. On the whole the Court does not tend to strike out legal proceedings and allow whoever is interested to bring his claim to court (Case # 20705-03-24).
