Upon the death of an author the rights to his work will be assigned to an heir/heiress just as any other physical property. If it is not specifically stated in the writers will a new assignee will be named by the Probate judge. Unless a new agreement is entered into by the new rights holder royalties will be paid to the designated rights holder just as if they were being paid to the author when he was alive.
