Nevada Code § 163.188

Distribution of assets funding a separate trust without creation of separate trust
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. Unless specifically prohibited by the
terms of a will or trust instrument and except as otherwise provided in
subsection 2, if an instrument creating a separate trust requires the assets of
the separate trust to be distributed to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the
trust immediately after the establishment of the separate trust as a result of
the circumstances existing at the time the separate trust is to be established,
the executor, trustee or any other party having possession of the property with
which the separate trust will be funded may exercise discretion to make a
distribution directly to the beneficiary or the beneficiaries of the separate
trust.
2. An executor, trustee or any other party
described in subsection 1 may exercise discretion rather than distributing the
trust assets to the trustee of the separate trust if the transferring executor,
trustee or any other party described in subsection 1 and the trustee of the
separate trust are the same person.
3. The receipts of distribution provided
to any beneficiary or beneficiaries in the manner described in this section
shall be deemed to protect the executor, trustee or other person having possession
of the property to the same extent that a receipt of distribution would have
protected the executor, trustee or other person had the property been
distributed by the trustee from the separate trust.
