There is no will the only child is a minor and parents were never married so can the child's mother control the estate?
The mother can apply to the probate court to be the executor. In this case the parents are entitled to the estate. There is probably little to distribute and nothing in the way of legal property. You might consult with a probate attorney to see if it is worth hiring them to assist, but they will probably say it isn't worth it.

I am the only child of my father who is deceased. His mother passed away in California. She has one daughter and one step-son living. What are my rights to her estate if she had no will?
I am assuming that your grandmother does not have a spouse who is still living. In California, if a resident dies without a will or trust, then the laws of intestate succession are used to determine who will inherit the estate. If your grandmother was not married, then the estate would be divided in equal shares (if they are in the same generation) to her children. If there are no children or grandchildren living, then the estate would go to her parents. If her parents are no longer living, then the estate is distributed to the "issue of the parents." (Issue is the legal term for children, grandchildren, etc.) I am not an attorney but typically, in your situation, you would inherit one third of the estate. (Your father's portion.)
If both parents die who is responsible for the debt?
