Generally, that's the same as in the US. Now, if the libel (written) brings about harm to the family name, a creative person could assert libel to the still-living members. There's also intentional infliction of emotional distress to consider -- if the monument is places with extreme indifference to the high likelyhood of a foreseeable harm to the family.

Oh, for people like Elvis, who live on in some corporate/estate form, the company itself may have a suit.

That's what I was really getting at - I didn't expect the fellow to rise up from his grave and complain that he can't get a job in heaven as a result of the malign actions of this cleric...
