If the decedent was not married and had no children then the parents would be the legal next of kin and have legal standing to file a lawsuit on behalf of his estate. They should open a probate of his estate and obtain appointment as his personal representative. One sibling, her husband and son would not have the legal standing to sue.
The parent should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate.

John Wayne's only sibling, Robert, is deceased.
yes he/she is allowed
That depends on the laws of the county in which you and or your sibling reside. In some countries there is an inheritance tax that may have to be paid.
When a sibling files a tax return for a deceased person, the refund check is typically payable to the estate of the deceased individual. The sibling, as the executor or administrator of the estate, can deposit the refund into the estate's bank account. If there is no formal estate, the check may be issued in the name of the deceased and require additional steps for cashing or depositing, often involving legal documentation like a death certificate and proof of relationship. Always consult a tax professional for specific guidance in these situations.
No, a sibling will not be responsible for the debts. The estate is responsible for the debts. If the estate has no assets, the creditors will not get paid. If there are not enough assets to pay the debts, the beneficiaries will not receive anything.
The court will look at the Will to determine if an alternate executor is named. If not, then the state probably has a list of people, in order, who should be named as administrator of the estate. Relationship to the deceased executor is irrelevant.
Your husband's niece is your niece, too. You and your husband are her aunt and uncle. Your brother is not related to a niece of yours who is the daughter of your husband's sibling.
Not legally. It would be interferring with the transfer of property and could result in criminal charges.
Yes, a sibling who is either keeping a secret about the deceased father to try and perhaps protect you or is just simply nasty about telling you can keep the whereabouts of where your deceased father is buried. You do not need information from her and can go get documentation from Vital Statistics or, go to the public library and look up obituaries. You could also ask other relatives in the family.
Yes unless there's a will or court order saying otherwise. The remaining family is usually the ones packing up the belongings.
the process is ...giving them some space
