She can go to court but if the facts are as stated she won't get anywhere. Unless she was financially dependent on your mother and no other provision has been made for her.

Her solicitor is probably double checking everything (as his his job) and when he has finished he OUGHT to advise her to drop the case.
Just noticed your username - it's possible the law may be different in Scotland. What I've said applies to England and Wales.
