2016 Arizona Revised Statutes
Title 14 - Trusts, Estates and Protective Proceedings
§ 14-3913 Distributions to trustee
14-3913. Distributions to trustee
A. Before distributing to a trustee, the personal representative may require that the trustee inform the beneficiaries as provided in section 14-10813, subsection B, paragraph 3, and if the state in which it is to be administered provides for registration, that the trust be registered.
B. If the trust instrument does not excuse the trustee from giving bond, the personal representative may petition the appropriate court to require that the trustee post bond if the personal representative apprehends that distribution might jeopardize the interests of persons who are not able to protect themselves, and the personal representative may withhold distribution until the court has acted.
C. An inference of negligence on the part of the personal representative shall not be drawn from the personal representative's failure to exercise the authority conferred by subsections A and B of this section.
