KRS 386B.10-120: Certification of trust.

(1) Instead of furnishing a copy of the trust instrument to a person other than a

beneficiary, the trustee may furnish to the person a certification of trust containing

the following information:

(a) That the trust exists and the date the trust instrument was signed;

(b) The identity of the settlor;

(c) The identity and address of the currently acting trustee;

(d) The powers of the trustee;

(e) The revocability or irrevocability of the trust and the identity of any person

holding a power to revoke the trust;

(f) The authority of cotrustees to sign or otherwise authenticate and whether all or

less than all are required in order to exercise powers of the trustee; and

(g) The manner of taking title to trust property.

(2) A certification of trust may be signed or otherwise authenticated by any trustee.

(3) A certification of trust shall state that the trust has not been revoked, modified, or

amended in any manner that would cause the representations contained in the

certification of trust to be incorrect.

(4) A certification of trust need not contain the dispositive terms of a trust.

(5) A recipient of a certification of trust may require the trustee to furnish copies of

those excerpts from the original trust instrument and later amendments which

designate the trustee and confer upon the trustee the power to act in the pending

transaction.

(6) A person who acts in reliance upon a certification of trust without knowledge that

the representations contained therein are incorrect is not liable to any person for so

acting and may assume without inquiry the existence of the facts contained in the

certification. Knowledge of the terms of the trust may not be inferred solely from

the fact that a copy of all or part of the trust instrument is held by the person relying

upon the certification.

(7) A person who in good faith enters into a transaction in reliance upon a certification

of trust may enforce the transaction against the trust property as if the

representations contained in the certification were correct.

(8) A person making a demand for the trust instrument in addition to a certification of

trust or excerpts is liable for damages if the court determines that the person did not

act in good faith in demanding the trust instrument.

(9) This section shall not limi t the right of a person to obtain a copy of the trust

instrument in a judicial proceeding concerning the trust.

(10) The District Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction over matters under this section.
