It's not the relatives getting sued. It's the estate of the dead person, 
which means basically she's petitioning a judge to sign a check on behalf of 
the dead person to pay her back for her medical expenses. There's no need 
for the relatives to even hear about the lawsuit, technically. It's just a 
thing that goes through probate along with the rest of the inheritance 
process. It's really no more discombobulating than having the people 
inheriting some real-estate property going to the judge saying "please sign 
a deed that gives the heirs the ownership of the house."

Remember that a "lawsuit" doesn't necessarily even mean someone is 
contesting something. It just means you're asking the judge to apply some law.
