F87D43FEFA6AFA73872587A000763C04 Hearing Summary

Darla Daniel, co-legislative liaison for the CBA Trusts & Estates Section, testified that the section has not reviewed the act but that a subcommittee has been formed and will start its review in January. Ms. Daniel believes that the Trusts & Estates Section will be collaborating with the Family Law Section on the review but that there is not yet a projected timeframe for completion. The commission pointed out that there is potential need for legislation in this area because of the likelihood that people in Colorado who pass away in Colorado may own property in community property states. Ms. Daniel indicated that it is her understanding that this is a revision to Colorado's current community property at death act.

Commissioner Duran moved that the commission not move the Uniform Community Property Disposition at Death Act forward in 2022 but request that the CBA continue to review the act and provide their input prior to the 2023 session. Commissioner Pike seconded and the motion passed without objection.
