Summary

The new law creates a statewide system that lets individuals, fiduciaries and parents formally decline ownership or control of any property interest, even if it comes from a will, trust, or intestate succession. It requires a written, signed declaration that is filed in a specific way, and the disclaimer becomes permanent once filed. The act is intended to simplify estate administration and protect the right to reject property.
