If the\nwill or lifetime trust instrument does not name a co-fiduciary or\nsuccessor fiduciary or if the co-fiduciary or successor fiduciary is\nunwilling or unable to act and the failure of the nominated fiduciary in\nwar service to qualify leaves no person acting as fiduciary or will\nleave the sole beneficiary of a trust as the only active trustee\nthereof, any person interested may file a petition praying for the\nappointment of a successor to the nominated fiduciary in war service.\nNotice of the application shall be given to the persons and in the\nmanner directed by the court.
