    Depends on whether a voice is considered a copyrightable asset.

    It isn’t, a voice is not an expression and hardly tangible, you can copyright a voice as much as you can copyright a violin, or a style of play: You can’t. But as we’re talking about a person and not an object it is use of someone’s likeness, which is part of personality rights.

      Once somebody is dead, their estate because their representative. It’s up to the estate to make the call at that point.
