(1) Notwithstanding ORS chapter 12 or any other provision of law, but subject to subsection (2) of this section, a civil action against a trustee based on any act or omission of the trustee, whether based in tort, contract or other theory of recovery, must be commenced within six years after the date the act or omission is discovered, or six years after the date the act or omission should have been discovered, whichever is earlier.
(2) A beneficiary may not commence a proceeding against a trustee more than one year after the date the beneficiary or a representative of the beneficiary is sent a report by certified or regular mail that adequately discloses the existence of a potential claim and that informs the beneficiary of the time allowed for commencing a proceeding. A copy of this section must be attached to the report. The report must provide sufficient information so that the beneficiary or representative knows of the potential claim or should have inquired into its existence.
(3) If subsections (1) and (2) of this section do not apply, a judicial proceeding against a trustee must be commenced within 10 years from the date of the act or omission complained of, or two years from the termination of any fiduciary account established under the trust, whichever is later.
