If you are named trustee in the trust, there is no court form. There is an out of court procedure.

There are a few issues to take care of in administering a trust. Please feel free to contact me for a quote on a reasonable fee to address your appointment as trustee, the notice to creditors, the filings with the IRS that need to take place and other issues that must be resolved in accepting appointment as a trustee.
