Troy McClure was one of my favorite characters on the Simpsons. Now you can't even see him on a re-run because Phil left everything to his wife. Hartman and Geoening were friends, and when he realized royalties would be going to Hartman's wife, he ordered a stop on all episodes with Hartman voices. Like Troy McClure, Rainier Wolfcastle, Lyle Lanley, Evan Conover, Eddie Muntz, Lionel Hutz (aka Miguel Sanchez), and probably a few others I'm forgetting.
The last Hartman voiced episode for Lionel Hutz was Season 5 episode 6 Realty Bytes. Popularized by the meme: "There's the truth and, the truth."
That sounded odd to me, because I'm pretty sure that if you kill someone, you aren't allowed to inherit from them. So I looked it up, and she killed herself after being confronted by the cops (As an aside, she was an abusive nutcase and it's a shame he didn't leave her). I also didn't see any results online similar to what you're saying. I think you're mistaken.
It definitely was. He once got really nasty in that charming Andy Dick way bragging about it to Jon Lovitz and Lovitz almost beat him to death in a bar over it.
His last voice over was season 10. That episode where Bart took care of those lizards he thought were birds. Bart the Mother. I guess some deal has been made because they air reruns with him now.
Not that you need more things to watch but... News Radio from the 1990s has Hartmann in a main role, along with Dave Foley and Stephen Root -- it's probably the best comedy of the 90s (along with Seinfeld/Shandling, of course).

That's what I get for repeating what I hear. I didn't even try and vet the source, I just took it as that's what happened.
I wonder then if Andy Dick introducing Hartman's wife to cocaine weeks before Hartman's death was even real.

The wife shot herself after killing Phil, why would he care about royalties going to her?

It's possible it was only for a certain length of time, like a decade or so. I thought it was permanent. My mistake!
That's why you're the judge and I'm the law talking ... guy.
He had some great lines. My favorite is “does this look like a man who had all he could eat”
