Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 17:9a-89, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.

§ 17:9a-89.

A. Shares of the capital stock of a bank held in a fiduciary capacity may be voted

in person or by proxy by the fiduciary holding such shares. If a bank holds shares of its own capital stock in a fiduciary capacity, such shares

may be voted and shall be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares

at any given time. B. If shares of the capital stock of a bank are held in a fiduciary capacity by two

or more fiduciaries, such shares may be represented and voted at any meeting of the

stockholders by any one of such fiduciaries, unless either (1) such fiduciary shall

be acting under an instrument or judgment of court which otherwise directs, or (2)

two or more fiduciaries seek to represent or vote such shares in person or by proxy

in a conflicting manner. If the instrument or judgment of court under which the fiduciaries are acting does

not provide the manner in which such shares shall be represented or voted, and the

cofiduciaries are in disagreement as to such representation or voting, such shares

shall be represented and voted in the manner determined by a majority of the cofiduciaries

and, if they be equally divided, such shares shall not be represented or voted except

pursuant to an order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
