It is hard to say what will happen to the settlement, mainly because it depends on what kind of settlement you're talking about. It could end up in probate, it could go to a beneficiary, or distributed according to the reading of a will. Hope this helps!

Lump Sum Settlement Can Be Sold?

If a person wins a lawsuit, a settlement agreement may be reached that provides income to the plaintiff in one large lump sum, but the timing of payment may be at some time in the future. There may be appeals that take up time before the ultimate settlement occurs. Other awards, like a large lottery win, promise a future lump sum settlement. Divorces may also contain lump sum settlement agreements that are to occur in the future. These lump sum settlement agreements can be bought and sold like assets. Occasionally there is some court involvement if the settlement requires supervision to protect the interests of the settlement holder. The main reason a court might intervene in the sale of a lump sum settlement would only be to protect the person who is to receive that settlement. Perhaps a person is physically or mentally disabled for life and can no longer work. The lump sum settlement provides needed income for that person that may be expected to last for their lifetime. If a settlement holder sells their arrangement to obtain a lump sum of cash right now, instead of in the future, that is a possibility. They will pay a large fee to the company that buys out their settlement. They receive a large, but lesser amount of cash at one time, and they get it right now instead of at some future date. If a lump sum settlement is sold, the payee is no longer the person who will receive the future lump sum. The company that has loaned them the lump sum of cash will receive the large payment whenever it does materialize. The lender gets a big fee plus their money back. It is an investment for them and an immediate windfall for the person who is selling out their settlement agreement. There are many reasons for wanting to sell out a lump sum settlement agreement before it is actually paid. What a person does with their settlement is optional unless the court is supervising the settlement for the recipient.
