Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

My uncle recently pasted away he didn't have a will, he is survived by my grandmother. He is currently in a lawsuit with some business dealing from his past, he had a house with about 23 acres and a car in his name. Will the estate get pasted into my grandmothers name or his the estate going to be liable? This is my grandmothers homestead residence currently. Thanks in-advance
