Summary
HB 4196 adds a new rule that forfeiture clauses in wills or trusts are enforceable unless the challenger proves just cause and good faith. It also creates a nonjudicial process for trustees to settle trust accounts, with required notice and a 60‑day objection period. The changes aim to clarify rights for beneficiaries and trustees while reducing court involvement.
