BILL NUMBER:S4779 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the estates, powers and trusts law, in relation to rights of a child conceived after the death of a genetic parent of such child This is one in a series of measures being introduced at the request of the Chief Administrative Judge upon the recommendation of her Surrogate's Court Advisory Committee. This measure would amend the Estates, Powers and Trusts Law ("EPTL") to provide rules governing the status, for purposes of inheritance and participation in certain dispositions in instruments including wills and trusts, of children conceived and born after the death of one or both of the persons from whose sperm or ova they were created (defined under the measure as the child's "genetic parent"). So long as the requirements set forth in this measure are met, such children are distributees of their genetic parents and are included in dispositions to the children of the genetic parents made in instruments created by any person. The measure also makes changes in various provisions of the EPTL necessary to give effect to the rights of such children without creating undue complications in existing law. Advances in medical technology make it possible for a child to be conceived after the death of one or both of the child's genetic parents (often referred to as posthumously-conceived children). The
