Heading: applicability of nebraska uniform trust code

Text: The revocable trust which is the subject of this proceeding was created in 1995. The Nebraska Uniform Trust Code (NUTC), Neb.Rev.Stat. §§ 30-3801 to 30-38,110 (Cum.Supp.2006) was enacted in 2003 and became operative on January 1, 2005. Except as otherwise provided in the NUTC, it applies to all trusts created before, on, or after January 1, 2005 and to all judicial proceedings concerning trusts commenced on or after January 1, 2005 [9] This trust administration proceeding was commenced on September 22, 2005. We have noted that the NUTC is generally applicable to all trusts in existence on January 1, 2005, subject to certain statutory and perhaps constitutional exceptions. [10] Here, the parties have directed us to no exception to the applicability of the NUTC to the preexisting trust, and we have found none. Accordingly, we conclude that the NUTC applies to this proceeding.
