California Substitution of Trustee and Full Reconveyance
Sometimes the original trustee on a deed of trust is unable or unwilling to perform his/her responsibilities. In that case, the beneficiary/lender uses this form to authorize a substitute trustee, who, by recording it, will release the lien and convey the land with a clear title.
California Code, Civil Code - CIV 2941
(2) If the trustee has failed to execute and record, or cause to be recorded, the full reconveyance within 60 calendar days of satisfaction of the obligation, the beneficiary, upon receipt of a written request by the trustor or trustor's heirs, successor in interest, agent, or assignee, shall execute and acknowledge a document pursuant to Section 2934a substituting itself or another as trustee and issue a full reconveyance.
(California Reconveyance Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

World class forms, great for someone like me that has no clue what I'm doing! Always better to let the pros do it than think one knows it all and gets themselves in trouble!
