PROBATE CODE
SECTION 385-388
385. (a) A consultant who is or will be engaged in war service may delegate the powers of the consultant, including discretionary powers, to a coconsultant who is not engaged in war service, or to the trustee administering the trust. The procedure for delegation by a fiduciary governs delegation by a consultant. (b) The right of delegation does not exist to the extent the court determines that powers to be delegated are purely personal to the consultant. These powers are suspended until their exercise is resumed pursuant to this article. 386. If a consultant who is engaged in war service does not delegate the consultant's powers, the court, on petition of the trustee or an interested person, may do either of the following: (a) Suspend the consultant's powers for the period of the consultant's war service and not to exceed six months following the expiration of that period. (b) Confer the powers, except discretionary powers that the court determines are purely personal to the consultant, on a coconsultant designated in the trust, the trustee, or any other qualified person. 387. If a consultant has delegated or the court has suspended the powers of the consultant, the court may, on petition by the consultant within six months following the expiration of the period of the consultant's war service, authorize the consultant to resume the exercise of the consultant's functions. All powers delegated to or conferred on other persons thereupon cease. 388. A consultant who delegates powers under this article is not liable for the acts or omissions of the delegate.
