Appointment of Successor Trustee for Revocable Trust: Settlor is Not Outgoing Trustee (New Jersey)

This template can be used to appoint a successor trustee of a revocable trust in New Jersey when the original settlor is not the outgoing trustee. It can be used while the trust is still revocable during the settlor's life, or after the settlor's death when the trust has become irrevocable. It can be used when the acting trustee wishes to name a successor trustee to take over in the event of resignation, incapacity, removal, or death, or when a person authorized in the trust instrument or the qualified beneficiaries of the trust want to name a successor trustee to act effective immediately.
