Text

An original trustee, an alternate trustee, or a successor trustee may be designated in the trust instrument or chosen by the use of a method provided in the trust instrument, but neither failure of the trust instrument to so provide nor disqualification or removal of the trustee for any reason, incompetence or unwillingness to act of the person so designated or chosen shall invalidate the trust. In such a case, the proper court shall appoint one or more trustees.
