HB 644 -- Nonprobate Transfers

Sponsor:  Burton

This bill repeals the provision which automatically revokes a
beneficiary designation upon the divorce of the beneficiary and
the owner of the property.  The bill creates a presumption that
a subsequent divorce between a beneficiary and the owner does
not affect the beneficiary designation, unless the document
clearly states otherwise.
