A BILL FOR AN ACT
Relating to disclaimers; amending ORS 105.643.
Be It Enacted by the People of the State of Oregon:
SECTION 1. ORS 105.643 is amended to read:
105.643. (1) A disclaimer is barred by a written waiver of the
right to disclaim.
(2) A disclaimer of an interest in property is barred if any of
the following events occurs before the disclaimer becomes
effective:
(a) The disclaimant accepts the interest sought to be
disclaimed;
(b) The disclaimant voluntarily assigns, conveys, encumbers,
pledges or transfers the interest sought to be disclaimed or
contracts to do so; or
(c) The interest sought to be disclaimed is sold pursuant to a
judicial sale.
(3) A disclaimer, in whole or part, of the future exercise of a
power held in a fiduciary capacity is not barred by the previous
exercise of the power.
(4) A disclaimer, in whole or part, of the future exercise of a
power not held in a fiduciary capacity is not barred by its
previous exercise unless the power is exercisable in favor of the
disclaimant.
(5) A disclaimer is barred or limited if so provided by a law
other than ORS 105.623 to 105.649.
{ + (6) A disclaimer is barred if the purpose or effect of
the disclaimer is to prevent recovery of money or property to be
applied against a judgment for restitution under ORS 137.101 to
137.109. + }
{ - (6) - } { + (7) + } A disclaimer of a power over
property that is barred under this section is ineffective. A
disclaimer of an interest in property that is barred under this
section takes effect as a transfer of the interest disclaimed to
the persons who would have taken the interest under ORS 105.623
to 105.649 had the disclaimer not been barred.
