Don't know what state you are in, however You may be able to file a " Disclaimer of Interest" If you've inherited an estate but you have no desire to keep it, you have the option of disclaiming it. Here in Virginia you have the right to disclaim any property or estate that you don't wish to inherit. Being named the beneficiary in a will or estate plan does not bind you to your inheritance. Here in Virginia you have nine months to file your disclaimer. The nine month term begins from the date of the death of the estate holder. You must file with the court that is overseeing the estate. Good luck.
