Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Kentucky

What type of lawsuit would I need to file to recover my cremated fathers remains? My aunt was given permission by me to pick the remains up from the funeral home and transport them to me. Now I she will not answer my phone calls. I feel she has disposed of the remains on her terms and not the wishes of my Father. Do I have a case, and could I receive damages.

Yes. You would file a civil suit, probably in Circuit Court. You would be best off contacting an attorney who practices probate as well as general litigation in order to file the lawsuit.
