This section is included in your selections.

(a) An interest in trust or restricted land may not pass to a devisee or an heir who is not eligible to receive trust or restricted land, as defined in YTC 2.25.040. The Tribe may acquire the interest by paying fair market value for the land to the Secretary of the Interior. This section shall not apply in the event the non-Indian devisee renounces the trust or restricted land interest in favor of an Indian.

(b) If the Tribe purchases trust or restricted land at probate, the person who would have received the interest in the land by devise or inheritance may retain a life estate in the land without regard to waste. [Ord. 52 § 9211, amended, 4/27/2023; Ord. 50A § 9211, amended, 6/22/2017.]
