If I hold an index future (e.g. emini russell 2000) can I let it expire for a cash settlement?

I suggest you check the costs associated with settlement with your broker so you don't get any nasty surprises.

You can let it expire in which case you'll be settled into cash based on the Special Opening Quotation (SOQ) on expiration Friday. Check CME for details.
