2024 SELECT LEGISLATIVE SUMMARY
PROBATE, TRUSTS, AND FIDUCIARIES
HB 24-1248 — UNIFORM NON-TESTAMENTARY ELECTRONIC ESTATE PLANNING
DOCUMENTS ACT
The Act clarifies when and how electronic documents may be used in estate planning documents,
other than wills, by authorizing a notary or notarial officer to notarize non-testamentary estate
planning documents. The Act adds a new Article 24 to Title 15 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.
Changes:
1. Defines “non-testamentary electronic estate planning document.”
2. Excludes from the definition of “non-testamentary electronic estate planning document” a
deed of real property or certificate of title for a motor vehicle, watercraft, or aircraft, and
any record of a multiple-party agreement or other contractual agreement not identified in
the list of documents that are not identified as non-testamentary estate planning documents.
3. Provides that a non-testamentary estate planning document or a signature on a nontestamentary
estate planning document may not be denied legal effect or enforceability
solely because it is in electronic form.
4. Provides that if other laws of Colorado require a non-testamentary estate planning document
to be in writing, an electronic record of the document satisfies such requirement.
5. Provides that if the laws of Colorado require a signature or record to be notarized,
acknowledged, verified, or made under oath, the requirement is satisfied with respect
to an electronic non-testamentary estate planning document if an individual authorized
to perform the notarization, acknowledgment, verification, or oath attaches or logically
associates the individual’s electronic signature on the document together with all other
information required to be included under law.
