My husband no longer wants any type of relationship with his mother. Can she take this to court and try to get a judge to grant her permission to see the kids.

Often they are telling you about what someone they know went through -hardly the same thing as the law in your specific case. I have been in the legal field for over 10 years and cannot tell you how many times people come to our office thinking they know already know what the law says, trust me they don't.

Many grandparents forget that. Judges in a court of law, don't forget that. It is only through loving and caring behaviours, do grandparents earn the priviledge of being a part of their grandchildren's lives. If this grandmother took this to court and the judge even had the smallest suspicion that Grandma is trying to use the children as pawns to cause problems and harm to a family, she won;t have a leg to stand on...plain and simple. She would be better to be more nicer, more decent, more compliant and make huge efforts to be the best she can be when in the presence of her grandchildren and you folks. Sad to see this happen in a family, but parents do have to protect their children from toxic people, including malicious grannies.

 No, she has no legal grounds for court. Let me expand. You need to check with the state you live in. I know with her behavior she won't have grounds, but some state still recognize grandparents rights.

 Legally your mother in law has no basic, you and your husband are the childrens legal guardians and have the right to decide who gets to see the children, She is welcome to try, but no judge will hear the case
