- North Carolina Uniform Trust Code
- Chapter 36C of the General Statutes (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-101) — North Carolina's trust code, applying to any express trust, private or charitable, testamentary or inter vivos, whether or not the trustee accounts to the clerk of superior court (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-102); the common law of trusts and principles of equity supplement it (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-106). Руководство: Трастовый кодекс Северной Каролины, раздел за разделом
- Trustee
- The person who holds and administers trust property under the terms of the trust — an original, additional or successor trustee, or a cotrustee, whether or not appointed or confirmed by a court (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-103(22)) — who takes office by accepting (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-7-701) and administers in good faith, in accordance with the trust's terms and purposes and the interests of the beneficiaries (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-8-801).

- Settlor
- A person, including a testator, who creates or contributes property to a trust; where more than one person creates or contributes, each is the settlor of the portion attributable to that person's contribution (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-103(17)). Руководство: Отзывный прижизненный траст Северной Каролины: объяснение
- Qualified beneficiary
- A living beneficiary who, on the date of determination, is a distributee or permissible distributee of trust income or principal, would be one if those distributees' interests ended without ending the trust, or would be one if the trust ended that day (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-103(15)); a charity expressly designated under a charitable trust, and a person appointed to enforce an animal or other noncharitable-purpose trust, have a qualified beneficiary's rights (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-110). Руководство: Обязанности управляющего-преемника в Северной Каролине после смерти
- Distributee and permissible distributee
- A beneficiary to whom the trust pays income or principal, or to whom the trustee may pay it — the qualified beneficiaries the trustee informs about the nature and amount of the trust property at reasonable intervals (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-8-813(a)(1)). Руководство: Обязанности управляющего-преемника в Северной Каролине после смерти
- Duty to inform
- The trustee's duty to provide reasonably complete and accurate information about the nature and amount of the trust property, at reasonable intervals, to each qualified beneficiary who is a distributee or permissible distributee, and, on a qualified beneficiary's reasonable request, a copy of the trust instrument, that information and reasonable inspection of the trust's subject matter, accounts and documents (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-8-813(a)) — never a duty to tell a beneficiary in advance of a transaction (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-8-813(b)(1)). Руководство: Обязанности управляющего-преемника в Северной Каролине после смерти
- Safe-harbor report
- A report sent at least annually and at the trust's termination that describes the trust property, liabilities, receipts and disbursements, including the source and amount of the trustee's compensation, and lists the assets with their market values; it discharges the interval-information duty for the matters it discloses, and no presumption arises against a trustee who sends none (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-8-813(b)(2)). North Carolina calls for no periodic report. Руководство: Требования к отчётности траста в Северной Каролине
- Clerk of superior court
- The officer of each county with original jurisdiction over proceedings concerning the internal affairs of trusts — appointing and removing trustees, approving resignations, reviewing trustees' fees, settling accounts, bond and more — exclusive except for the questions of construction, beneficiaries and rights a party may move to the superior court (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-2-203). Руководство: Пробейт в Северной Каролине: объяснение
- Estate matter
- How the clerk of superior court dockets a contested trust proceeding: commenced as a civil action, the respondents summoned to answer within 20 days, the summons served under Rule 4 of the Rules of Civil Procedure (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-2-205(a)); an uncontested proceeding is a petition the clerk may decide summarily ((b)). Руководство: Пробейт в Северной Каролине: объяснение
- Accounting to the clerk
- A trustee files accounts with the clerk of superior court only where the trust instrument directs it or another law calls for it (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-2-208(a)) — notably a testamentary trustee under a will executed before January 1, 2004, unless the will provides otherwise (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-2-209(a)); such a trustee may not resign until a final account is filed and the court is satisfied (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-2-208(b)). Руководство: Требования к отчётности траста в Северной Каролине
- Revocable trust
- A trust the settlor may revoke without the trustee's consent or a person with an adverse interest (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-1-103(16)); a trust under an instrument executed under the Chapter is revocable unless its terms expressly say it is irrevocable (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-6-602(a)). While it is revocable, the beneficiaries' rights are subject to the settlor's control and the trustee's duties are owed exclusively to the settlor (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-6-603). Руководство: Отзывный прижизненный траст Северной Каролины: объяснение
- Contest window
- The time to contest the validity of a trust that was revocable at the settlor's death: the earlier of three years after the death, or 120 days after the trustee sent the person a copy of the instrument and a notice, served under Rule 4, of the trust's existence, the trustee's name and address and the time allowed (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-6-604(a)); the trustee makes no distribution against a pending or noticed contest (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-6-604(b)). Руководство: Правопреемник-попечитель после смерти в Северной Каролине: первые шаги
- Declaration of validity before death
- A North Carolina settlor's own proceeding, in the superior court during the settlor's life, for a declaration that the settlor's revocable trust is valid (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-4C-2); the judgment binds the parties, who may not challenge the trust's validity once it becomes irrevocable (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-4C-5). Руководство: Отзывный прижизненный траст Северной Каролины: объяснение
- Claims against the settlor
- During the settlor's life, the property of a revocable trust is subject to the settlor's creditors' claims; after the death, the property of a trust revocable at the death answers for the settlor's creditors, the estate's administration costs, the funeral and the statutory allowances to the extent the probate estate is inadequate, subject to the settlor's right to direct the source (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-5-505(a)). Руководство: Правопреемник-попечитель после смерти в Северной Каролине: первые шаги
- Limited personal representative
- A person the clerk of superior court appoints only to give notice to the decedent's creditors without an estate administration — where the decedent left no probate personal property, the estate is collected by affidavit or summarily, or the like, and no administration is open; the trustee serving under the decedent's revocable trust may petition for the appointment (N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 28A-29-1, 28A-29-2), and claims are then presented and barred as in an estate (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-29-4). Руководство: Правопреемник-попечитель после смерти в Северной Каролине: первые шаги
- Notice to creditors
- The personal representative's notice, published once a week for four consecutive weeks, naming a day at least three months after the first publication by which claims are presented; a copy goes to each creditor actually known or reasonably ascertainable within 75 days after letters, and to the Division of Health Benefits where the decedent was receiving medical assistance (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-14-1). Руководство: Пробейт в Северной Каролине: объяснение
- Claims bar
- A claim against a decedent's estate that arose before the death is barred unless presented by the day the notice to creditors names or, for a creditor mailed the notice, within 90 days after the mailing if later; every such claim is barred if the first publication does not occur within three years after the death (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-19-3). Руководство: Пробейт в Северной Каролине: объяснение
- Personal representative
- The executor or administrator the clerk of superior court qualifies for a decedent's estate, who publishes and mails the notice to creditors (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-14-1), files the inventory within three months (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-20-1) and annual accounts (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-21-1); a nonresident serves only after appointing a resident process agent (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 28A-4-2(4)). Руководство: Пробейт в Северной Каролине: объяснение
- Collection by affidavit (small estate)
- Personal property worth no more than $20,000, net of liens — $30,000 for a surviving spouse entitled to it all — collected more than 30 days after the death on a filed affidavit, without letters (N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 28A-25-1, 28A-25-1.1). Руководство: Пробейт в Северной Каролине: объяснение
- Medicaid death notice
- The notice a trustee gives the Division of Health Benefits of a death within 90 days of it, where the trust was established by a person who at death was receiving medical assistance, the trust was revocable at the death and the trustee knows of the assistance within the 90 days; not for a preneed funeral trust's trustee (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-8-818). Руководство: Правопреемник-попечитель после смерти в Северной Каролине: первые шаги
- Medicaid estate recovery
- The Department of Health and Human Services' plan to recover from a recipient's estate the medical assistance paid for nursing-facility or other institutional care, or, from age 55, for the listed services, as a sixth-class creditor of the estate (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 108A-70.5). Руководство: Правопреемник-попечитель после смерти в Северной Каролине: первые шаги
- Spendthrift provision
- A term restraining both the voluntary and the involuntary transfer of a beneficiary's interest — "spendthrift trust" or similar words suffice — under which the beneficiary may not transfer the interest and no creditor or assignee reaches it or a distribution before the beneficiary receives it (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-5-502); a child's support judgment is the one exception (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-5-503). Руководство: Защита активов в Северной Каролине: основы
- Discretionary trust interest
- An interest subject to the trustee's discretion, with or without a standard — including sums the trustee decides are appropriate for support, education or maintenance; it is not transferable, not reachable by a creditor before receipt, and a creditor may not compel a distribution even where the discretion was abused (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-5-504). Руководство: Защита активов в Северной Каролине: основы
- Power holder
- A person other than a trustee whom the trust's terms empower to direct or consent to the trustee's actions or to hold other powers over the trust — a fiduciary unless the terms make it a nonfiduciary (N.C.

- A trustee acting under a power holder's direction, who acts in accordance with it and is not liable for complying unless compliance is intentional misconduct, and has no duty to monitor the power holder (N.C.

- Trustee's bond
- Security for the performance of the trustee's duties: given where the instrument was executed before January 1, 2006, unless its terms provide otherwise; after that date only where the terms call for one; or where a beneficiary's reasonable request or the court calls for one — never where the governing instrument directs otherwise; licensed banks and trust companies give none (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 36C-7-702). Руководство: Преемник-управляющий в Северной Каролине: принятие роли
- Reasonable compensation
