Decedent owned property in Grand Cayman and property was sold. Should the NY court have any say over its sale and distribution of the proceeds?

Yes, they DO have jurisdiction. I suggest you look at NY State Statutes on the subject and you will see how & why. Part of the rationale is judicial efficiency.
