Trust 2002 Dad remarries 2003 dies 2004

My father-in-law died 2/17/04. He remarried 2/14/03. He mad a trust and my husband (his son) and I are the trustees. He did not revise his trust to include his wife. Does she have any legal rights to reside in the house or use and of the property left in the trusts including bank accounts ?

The step mom has no right to the house as it is not a probate asset. If she wants trust assets she has to break the trust. The house goes to the beneficiaries of the trust.

Good Luck
