Title 53, Chapter 5, Section 67
( 53-5-67)
On death of a sole owner or the last to die of all multiple owners,
ownership of securities registered in beneficiary form passes to the
beneficiary or beneficiaries who survive all owners. On proof of
death of all owners and compliance with any applicable requirements
of the registering entity, a security registered in beneficiary form
may be reregistered in the name of the beneficiary or beneficiaries
who survive the death of all owners. Until division of the security
after the death of all owners, multiple beneficiaries surviving the
death of all owners hold their interests as tenants in common. If
no beneficiary survives the death of all owners, the security
belongs to the estate of the deceased sole owner or the estate of
the last to die of all multiple owners. |
