Cashing a check from a deceased person is generally not allowed, as the deceased's bank account is typically frozen upon death. To access funds, the estate must go through probate, and any checks issued would need to be dealt with according to the estate's legal process. It’s important to consult with a legal professional or the bank for guidance on how to handle such situations.
