Whether a judgment without jurisdiction of the decedent violates the petitioner's right to due process under the Fourteenth Amendment

QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1) Ifseveral states following close versions of Rule 25 (FRCP) have held that judgments without jurisdiction of the decedent are a nullity, and those same state courts and at least two U.S. Circuit Courts have condemned such treatment of the substitution process, does judgment without jurisdiction here violate petitioner's right to due process of law under the Fourteenth Amendment? 2) The effects of state court judgments can cross many borders. Are we allowing tactics in litigation to circumvent the importance of personal jurisdiction? i
