1. Person other than donor barred. 
Except as otherwise provided in subsection 7, in the absence of an express, contrary
indication by the donor, a person other than the donor is barred from making, amending
or revoking an anatomical gift of a donor's body or a part if the donor made an anatomical
gift of the donor's body or the part under section 2945 or an amendment to an anatomical
gift of the donor's body or the part under section 2946.

2. Revocation not refusal. 
A donor's revocation of an anatomical gift of the donor's body or a part under section

2949 from making an anatomical gift of the donor's body or a part under section 2945
or 2950.

If a person other than the donor makes an unrevoked anatomical gift of the donor's
body or a part under section 2945 or an amendment to an anatomical gift of the donor's
body or a part under section 2946, another person may not make, amend or revoke the
gift of the donor's body or part under section 2950.

4. Effect of revocation by person other than donor. 
A revocation of an anatomical gift of the donor's body or a part under section 2946
by a person other than the donor does not bar another person from making an anatomical
gift of the body or a part under section 2945 or 2950.

5. Effect of gift of a part or for a purpose. 
In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person authorized
to make an anatomical gift under section 2944:





A. An anatomical gift of a part is neither a refusal to give another part nor a limitation
on the making of an anatomical gift of another part at a later time by the donor or
another person under section 2945 or 2950; and [2007, c. 601, §2 (NEW).]










B. An anatomical gift of a part for one or more of the purposes set forth in section
2944 is not a limitation on the making of an anatomical gift of the part for any of
the other purposes by the donor or any other person under section 2945 or 2950. [2007, c. 601, §2 (NEW).]
