Deciding together
20 Pa.C.S. §7763 provides that co-trustees who do not reach a unanimous decision may act by majority. Where no majority agrees, the court, on petition of a trustee or a party in interest, may direct the exercise or nonexercise of the power as it deems necessary for the trust's best interest, unless the terms provide otherwise. Each co-trustee participates in the trustee's functions unless unavailable or properly delegated.
A vacancy
If a vacancy occurs, the remaining co-trustees may act for the trust (20 Pa.C.S. §7763(b)), and the vacancy need not be filled unless the terms require it; one that must be filled is filled by the person the terms designate, then by the qualified beneficiaries' unanimous written agreement, then by the court (§7764).
Signing for the trust
A certification of trust states the co-trustees' authority to sign and whether all or fewer than all are required to exercise the trustee's powers (20 Pa.C.S. §7790.3(a)(6)). Where a trust director rather than a co-trustee holds a power of direction, the directed trustee follows the director's exercise of it, except to the extent compliance would be willful misconduct (§7780.20).

What if Pennsylvania co-trustees are deadlocked?
Unless the terms provide otherwise, the court, on petition of a trustee or a party in interest, may direct the exercise or nonexercise of the power (20 Pa.C.S. §7763(a.1)).
