Like this: the individual has a 10,000€ fine plus additional fees for avoiding it for a long time but there’s a catch, that person is deceased since their family has a death certificate proving he or she’s dead.
However, does that alone erase the unpaid fine from existence as it makes no sense to still go after the individual since they’re no longer alive and their relatives are not involved as it’s not on them.


Where I live any debt (fines are considered debt) of a deceased person become part of their inheritance.
The receivers of the inheritance must accept it whole or not at all. If they choose not to inherit then the values of the inheritance are used to paid the debt as much as possible, and only then the debt is extinguished
