What can you do with an uncashed check from a closed bank that is an inheritance?
In theory, the estate's account cannot be "closed" until all assets are distributed, even though it may take years to track down beneficiaries and deliver the checks. Because the value is still "in the estate", the check on the closed bank should be exchanged for a valid one on another estate account, perhaps opened for the specific purpose of the final disposition. The executor/administrator may be personally liable for the amount of the check if the estate can't seem to find it.
