It varies based on state law, but generally a dead person is disqualified from receiving from the will. Typically, a will includes a residuary clause which names a person or entity that is to receive any remaining assets. The cash would be included with those remaining assets.

If there is no further person named or they are dead, then the estate would be treated as if the person died intestate (without a will). Each state has rules for who would inherit in this event. Generally, it is first spouse, then children and goes on from there.

If you get paid in cash do you have to file taxes?

Legally yes.... you have to file taxes if you are paid in cash... Many times even cash payments are reported to the IRS via a 1099 form that the person/employer who paid you the cash will file,you would receive these 1099 forms just as you would the W-2 forms for standard taxes.... If you receive no 1099 form then you have to file as self-employed and still report your income.....
