The suit is decree 30 years back in which her mother was entitled for 1/10th share as per decree. ..
Now we want to bring legal heirs of predeceased son ( i.e my father on record) ( i.e me and my sister) for which my uncle or his children have no objection, Can other defendants who are (children or grand children's of my great grand mothers brothers or sisters) who are also parties to the Final decree proceeding object to our LR Application,

Legally an Widow is entitled to get a share out of her husband's property but she has no right to claim partition. She would get her share as Class 1 Legal Heir when the Partition of Ancestral Property gets affected.
