Summons cannot be served on the dead person. However, anything can be done in our diluted judicial system. You, therefore, file a Party impleading petition before the court and make yourself party to the proceeding. If you can convince the court about her fraudulent tactics, then court will dismiss her petition.

In what way you can step into the case and what authority/powers.  Collect such evidence to establish that she is aware of the expartee decree long back through AADHAR or voter card or some other Public records which do not state her husband's name in last fourteen years.  Contact local advocate and ask him to study her statements for the delay.
