A case headed to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court could give estate administrators standing to challenge faulty death certificate findings that bar them from seeking wrongful death damages and other forms of legal recovery.

The high court on Tuesday granted an appeal in a couple’s bid to remove what they contend is an incorrect finding of suicide from their daughter’s death certificate. The parents assert that the erroneous finding has created a barrier to seeking justice or restitution for their daughter’s violent death in 2011.
