<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Folks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a PC whose mother had an RLT holding two properties and some cash. Under the terms of the trust, one property went to one brother (also the trustee), one property (a condo) went to the sister, and part of the cash went to 2nd brother
(the “bad” brother who sponged off mom for years). The cash ran out, and in order to afford mom’s care at the very end, the condo was sold and the proceeds put into the cash account. Mom used a small amount of the proceeds before her death. Now the sister
is wondering if there is anyway that she can still receive the condo proceeds. The trust was silent on what would happen if the property was sold. All three kids know what mom intended, but “bad” brother isn’t expected to be cooperative. Trustee brother
would like his sister to get the proceeds, but doesn’t want to be caught in the middle of a big dispute. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I really don’t want this, and I would love to refer sister to someone who knows if there is law that would support trustee distributing the remaining condo proceeds to her, and orchestrate it with the siblings. Self referrals welcome.
The client is very eager to get this done asap.<o:p></o:p></p>
