Can a Will’s Distribution Be Made to a Person in Jail?

The Executor of a Will is charged with distributing the assets listed within the Will per its terms and per state law.

The fact that one of the beneficiaries of the Will is in jail would not prevent such a distribution. The Executor would contact the beneficiary requesting instructions for distribution.
