Propose a change

Title 2 Wills, Decedents' Estates and Probate Code

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

2-3-915. Judicial control of discretionary powers.

(a) A court shall not change a trustee's decision to exercise or not to exercise a discretionary power conferred by this act unless it determines that the decision was an abuse of the trustee's discretion. A court shall not determine that a trustee abused its discretion merely because the court would have exercised the discretion in a different manner or would not have exercised the discretion. (b) Where a beneficiary elects to challenge an action or nonaction by a trustee or disinterested party under the powers and authority granted in the party under this act, the beneficiary has the burden of establishing, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the actions or nonactions by a trustee or a disinterested party abused the trustee's or the party's discretion. A beneficiary who fails to state a basis or reason for an objection or fails to prove by a preponderance of the evidence the proposed action should be taken or should not be taken shall be liable to all other beneficiaries for damages and costs associated with the objection.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
