Chapter 130 — Uniform Trust Code
ORS 130.155 UTC 402
Requirements for creation. (1) A trust is created only if all of the following requirements are met:
The settlor has capacity to create a trust.
The settlor indicates an intention to create the trust.
The trust has a definite beneficiary or is:
A charitable trust;
A trust for the care of an animal, as provided in ORS 130.185;
A trust for a noncharitable purpose, as provided in ORS 130.190; or
A stewardship trust, as provided in
ORS 130.193.
The trustee has duties to perform.
The same person is not the sole trustee and sole beneficiary.
A beneficiary is definite for the purposes of subsection (1)(c) of this section if the beneficiary can be ascertained when the trust is created or at any time thereafter, subject to any applicable rule against perpetuities.
A power of a trustee to select a beneficiary from an indefinite class is valid. If the power is not exercised within a reasonable time, the power fails and the property subject to the power passes to the persons who would have taken the property had the power not been conferred.
