Removes inability to read and write English as a reason for ineligibility to act as a fiduciary.

The bill amends the surrogate's court procedure act to remove the inability to read and write English as a reason a court may declare someone ineligible to act as a fiduciary. Previously, this was a disqualifying factor, but the bill changes this, allowing more people to potentially serve as fiduciaries. The change takes effect immediately upon enactment.
