If the wife doesn't apply for administrator after the death of her spouse, can one of their children apply?

Yes, if the surviving spouse does not apply within the period allowed after death (the time period is very short, like 20 days) then one of the children can apply to be personal representative. The child would need to retain counsel.

If the wife doesn't apply for administrator after the death of her spouse, can one of their children apply?

Estate Planning lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
I would first like to have the details of the decedents estate, if any. It is quite possible that all of his assets have gone to her by operation of law and therefore no administrator or executor is required.
