You'll need to file a motion in the step-dad's probate case asking the court to review the propriety of these actions by your step-sister. Since there was not will, the laws of intestacy will apply as to how the estates are divided.

What you’ve set out there looks pretty good. You might want to consider asking the judge to make the dvo no unlawful contact rather than to just dismiss it. I think the odds go up if you ask for no unlawful contact.
