Md. Code Ann., Est. & Trusts § 14.5-601

Known as the Maryland Trust Act

The act spans §§ 14–14 (103 sections).

(a) The capacity required to create, amend, revoke, or add property to a revocable trust, or to direct the actions of the trustee of a revocable trust, is the same as that required to make a will.

(b) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the creation of a revocable trust if that creation is otherwise authorized under State law.

(c) The fact that the settlor becomes incapacitated or loses the capacity required to create a will does not convert a revocable trust into an irrevocable trust.
