the disclaimer shall relate back to the date of the transfer.

interest therein, any assignment or transfer of or contract to assign or
transfer personal property, any written waiver of the right to disclaim
the taking of or power over real or personal property or any sale or other
disposition of real or personal property pursuant to judicial process by
a person attempting to disclaim the taking of or power over property bars
the right of such person to disclaim as to the power, property or interest.
(c) The right to disclaim shall exist irrespective of any limitation
on the interest of the disclaimant in the nature of a spendthrift provision
or similar restriction.

the right to disclaim shall be final, and the disclaimer or waiver cannot
be revoked and shall be binding upon the disclaimant or person waiving,
the personal representative of the disclaimant or person waiving and all
parties claiming the right to disclaim or waive by, through or under the
disclaimant or person waiving, except that, in the case of disclaimer,
the interest in or power over the property shall pass as provided in subsection
(a) unless otherwise provided by the instrument creating the interest or
power or unless the interest or power is further disclaimed by the person
succeeding to the disclaimed interest or power.
(e) Any interest in real or personal property which exists on the
effective date of this act, but which has not then become indefeasibly
fixed both in quality and quantity, or the taker of which has not then
become finally ascertained, may be disclaimed after the effective date
of this act in the manner provided herein, but no interest which has become
fixed prior to the effective date of this act in any person other than
the disclaimant shall be destroyed or diminished by any action of the disclaimant
taken pursuant to this act.
(f) Any interest, rents, profits or other income which arises from
an interest in property disclaimed pursuant to this act and which accrues
between the date of the death of the decedent or donee and the date of
the disclaimer shall be the property of the person entitled to receive
the disclaimed interest in the property and the person shall have a right
of action against the disclaimant to recover that income.
