§ 60-175.90. Attachment of present or future distributions - Restrictions limiting distribution powers.  


Latest version.
  • A.  A trustee may only make distributions for the purposes designated by the settlor.  A creditor, including an exception creditor, has no greater rights than a beneficiary.  In this respect, a creditor, including an exception creditor, cannot attach present or future distributions if the claim of the creditor does not come within the distribution standard.

    B.  A restriction limiting the distribution powers of a trustee as to a trustee, which distribution might result in the loss of a beneficiary’s eligibility for participation in a federal or state benefits program, including, but not limited to, Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income, Social Security Disability Income, or other state or federal benefits program is valid, and no creditor, including an exception creditor, may attach present or future distributions from such a trust.  All other restrictions curtailing the distribution power of a trustee are void as to exception creditors, if any exception creditors are provided by the Oklahoma Discretionary and Special Needs Trust Act.
