In the absence of a provision in a trust instrument giving the trustee power to terminate the trust, a trustee generally has no control over the continuance of the trust. In this form, the trustee had been given the authority to terminate the trust. This form is a generic example that may be referred to when preparing such a form for your particular state. It is for illustrative purposes only. Local laws should be consulted to determine any specific requirements for such a form in a particular jurisdiction.
