What happens when the beneficiary of a will refuses to accept the terms of the bequest?

Asked by srmorgan (6773points) June 6th, 2015

For example, Roger dies and say I can inherit money if I promise to provide care for his labradoodle, Mlle. Pamplemousse.
Or to take it a bit farther, Roger dies and leaves $20,000.000 to his alma mater if they agree to change the name of a building to Pamplemousse Hall and will, after the dog’s death, have him stuffed and kept on perpetual display in a prominent place of honor in the building.
Just asking
