CONSTRUCTION OF POWER RELATING TO ESTATE,
TRUST, AND OTHER BENEFICIARY TRANSACTIONS
In a statutory power of attorney, the language granting power
with respect to estate, trust, and other beneficiary transactions
empowers the agent to act for the principal in all matters that
affect a trust, probate estate, guardianship, conservatorship,
escrow, custodianship, or other fund from which the principal is,
may become, or claims to be entitled, as a beneficiary, to a share
or payment, including to:
1. Accept, reject, disclaim, receive, receipt for, sell,
assign, release, pledge, exchange, or consent to a reduction in or
modification of a share in or payment from the fund;
2. Demand or obtain by litigation or otherwise money or other
thing of value to which the principal is, may become, or claims to
be entitled by reason of the fund;
3. Initiate, participate in, and oppose litigation to ascertain
the meaning, validity, or effect of a deed, will, declaration of
trust, or other instrument or transaction affecting the interest of
the principal;
4. Initiate, participate in, and oppose litigation to remove,
substitute, or surcharge a fiduciary;
5. Conserve, invest, disburse, and use anything received for an
authorized purpose; and
6. Transfer an interest of the principal in real property,
stocks, bonds, accounts with financial institutions, insurance, and
other property, to the trustee of a revocable trust created by the
principal as settlor.
