My sister died in july and we were told the only person who could sue was her spouse. So he made an agreement to split the money with me once the lawsuit is settled. Can this promissory note be enforced on the case?

Possibly. It all depends on the agreement, though it sounds dubious that one could have a promissory note for 1/2 of an unknown settlement amount. Especially when the wrongful death act specifically addresses what claims are viable and who gets to claim what.
