The only reasons not to notify a named executor of the death of the testator are ALL negative. Either you want to use, and possibly convert, the decedent's property; plunder the bank accounts; prevent the distribution of the estate according to the terms of the will; etc. Those actions are against the law. Since you know who the named executor is you are withholding the will and preventing the settling of the estate. That is against the law
The executor should be notified so the will can be admitted to probate and the estate settled according to the terms of the will and the state laws under the supervision of the probate court. If there is real estate the title to the property cannot pass to the heirs unless the estate is probated.
