Dear Sir,
Yes, the case against the dead person will be abated and trial will be continued against another accused who is alive. However if charges are not framed against the living accused then he has liberty to file discharge application under Section 239 of CrPC. Alternatively you may take all possible defenses during cross examination of complainant and witnesses.
