Regardless of whether a beneficiary has any outstanding creditor, a trustee of a spendthrift trust may directly pay any expense on behalf of such beneficiary and may exhaust the income and principal of the trust for the benefit of such beneficiary. No trustee is liable to any creditor for paying the expenses of a beneficiary of a spendthrift trust.</span></p><p dir="ltr" class="s2072547Normal"><span xml:space="preserve" class="s2072547000001"> </span></p><p dir="ltr" class="s2072547Normal"><span class="s2072547SCL">Source:</span><span xml:space="preserve" class="s2072547SCL-000002"> SL 2007, ch 280, § 12; SL 2011, ch 212, § 34.</span></p></div></body></html>
