What is the name of your state? south dakota
My ex husband terminated his parental rights when my son was 2 and let my new husband adopt him. The last time my ex saw him he was 6 month old. On Dec 3rd 2004 he turned 14 and on December 5th 2004 he was killed in a car accident. The Attorneys for the insurance company of the driver of the vehicle said we need to go to probrate court. (i understand this) They said they will send notification letters to my husband me and the 5 siblings. They also told me that they will notify my ex of the probate hearing as he may have rights to the settlement money. Is this CORRECT? If he gets money can I then go and get 13 and 1/2 yrs of back child support and half of funeral expenses? I didnt notify him of death but he found out and came to funeral. I also posted on the probate.
