Tennessee Code Title 66. Property § 66-1-111

(a) The doctrine of worthier title in both its inter vivos and testamentary branches, as it may apply to any kind of property, and regardless of whether it is applied as a rule of property or of construction, is abolished for all effects and purposes. This section shall not affect any right in property heretofore vested, and shall not affect the reversion of the grantor of any deed heretofore given. The doctrine of worthier title shall not operate to affect the disposition of property by the will of any person dying after July 1, 1983.

(b) The consent of the beneficiaries of any express trust whenever created who are described in the trust only as the heirs of the settlor or the heirs of the settlor's body shall not be required for the termination of such trust during the life of the settlor.
