Yes, you can sue an heir in certain situations, such as if they are responsible for debts or obligations of the deceased that have passed to their estate. However, the heir is typically not personally liable for the deceased's debts unless they co-signed or guaranteed those debts. Legal action may also depend on the nature of the claim and the jurisdiction's laws regarding inheritance and estate matters. It's advisable to consult with a legal professional for guidance specific to your situation.
