Section 46A-4-413 - Cy presA. Except as otherwise provided in Subsection B of this section, if a particular charitable purpose becomes unlawful, impracticable, impossible to achieve or wasteful: (1) the trust does not fail, in whole or in part;(2) the trust property does not revert to the settlor or the settlor's successors in interest; and(3) the court may apply cy pres to modify or terminate the trust by directing that the trust property be applied or distributed, in whole or in part, in a manner consistent with the settlor's charitable purposes.B. A provision in the terms of a charitable trust that would result in distribution of the trust property to a noncharitable beneficiary prevails over the power of the court under Subsection A of this section to apply cy pres to modify or terminate the trust only if, when the provision takes effect:(1) the trust property is to revert to the settlor and the settlor is still living; or(2) fewer than twenty-one years have elapsed since the date of the trust's creation.C. The attorney general as parens patriae is a necessary party to any cy pres proceeding in the Uniform Trust Code [46A-1-101 NMSA 1978]. Laws 2003, ch. 122, § 4 -413.
