If her deceased husband overpaid his child support his estate could sue to recoup the amount of the overpayment. His widow must petition to be appointed his estate representative and that appointment would provide her with the authority to bring suit. Of course, all the costs associated with that action must be considered and the amount of the overpayment must be large enough to warrant such an action. Keep in mind that minor children have a claim to their father's estate in most jurisdictions.
