Uniform Trust and Estate Statutes
Author: John H. Langbein, Lawrence W. Waggoner

The 2009-2010 edition contains full text and official comments of the Uniform Probate Code, incorporating the 2008 amendments recently promulgated by the Uniform Law Commission. Among the most important revisions to the Code: Intestacy and class gifts: New or substantially revised sections dealing with nonmarital children, adopted children, and ... more »children of assisted reproduction. Execution of Wills. Notarized wills are now authorized as an alternative to wills that are attested by two witnesses. Reformation and Modification. New ?? 2-805 and 2-806 bring the reformation and modification sections now contained in the Uniform Trust Code into the Uniform Probate Code. In addition, technical amendments revise the elective share (?? 2-201 through 2-214) and antilapse provisions (?? 2-603, 2-706, and 2-707). Designed to be used with any casebook or textbook, this statutory collection provides law students with a single-volume source containing all the uniform acts needed in a trusts and estates course. As in previous editions, the 2009-2010 Edition contains the full statutory texts of the principal Uniform Acts pertaining to trusts and estates, including the Uniform Probate Code, the Uniform Trust Code, and the various special-purpose acts. The book supplies full texts of the three recently-promulgated acts: the Revised Uniform Anatomical Gift Act, the Uniform Power of Attorney Act, and the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act. As in past editions, the 2009-2010 Edition reproduces the official comments for the substantive articles (II and VI) of the Uniform Probate Code; for the Uniform Trust Code; and for most of the other Uniform Acts. The book groups the trust and estates statutes in three parts: Part One, Probate Statutes, primarily contains the Uniform Probate Code (1990 text, incorporating all subsequent amendments). The Uniform Probate Code incorporates several freestanding Acts, including the Uniform Disclaimer of Property Interests Act (1999) and the Uniform Estate Tax Apportionment Act (2003). Part Two of the book, devoted to Trust Statutes, begins with the Uniform Trust Code (2000 and subsequent amendments). Part Two also contains the Uniform Principal and Income Act (1997, with 2008 amendments), the Uniform Prudent Investor Act (1994), and the Uniform Custodial Trust Act (1987). Part Three, containing other Uniform Acts, includes the Uniform Parentage Act (2000, with 2002 amendments); the Uniform Health-Care Decisions Act (1993); the Uniform Simultaneous Death Act (1993); the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (1984); the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (1983, with 1986 amendments); the Model Marital Property Act (1983); and the Uniform Premarital Agreement Act (1983). A unique feature of the book is that juxtaposes with the current Uniform Acts certain carefully selected extracts of important provisions from former versions of various Uniform Acts, especially the pre-1990 version of UPC Article II; and selected provisions from the Restatement (Third) of Trusts (2003) and the Restatement (Third) of Property: Wills and Other Donative Transfers (1999-2003).
