§ 9334 Trustee Voting Rights

Key Takeaways

  • •If a court picks someone to take care of another person's stuff (like money or property), that person can vote in elections.
  • •They don’t need extra permission from the court to vote.
  • •This includes people like guardians (who take care of kids or adults who can’t take care of themselves) and executors (who handle a dead person’s stuff).

Example

Your uncle dies and leaves you in charge of his house and money. The court says you’re the executor.

Even though you’re now handling your uncle’s stuff, you can still vote in the next election without asking the court for permission.
