What condition allows a seller to cancel a trust or joint account preneed contract?

The correct answer pertains to the specific contractual obligations outlined in preneed contracts governed by Missouri Funeral Directors Law. A seller is allowed to cancel a trust or joint account preneed contract when the purchaser has defaulted on their payment for a period exceeding 60 days. This provision is designed to protect the seller's financial interests while ensuring that there is a clear standard for managing defaults on payments.

Having this requirement in place helps to maintain the integrity of the preneed contract system and provides a defined timeframe for both parties. It also emphasizes the importance of timely payments in the contractual relationship. Other scenarios, such as being late on payment for 30 days or simply requesting to cancel, do not meet the statutory grounds for cancellation. Finding a better offer elsewhere does not justify cancellation, as the contract remains binding until the purchaser falls into a default situation as specified.
