12.18.18

David F. Johnson, lead writer for the Texas Fiduciary Litigator blog, discusses interesting fiduciary issues that Texas courts have discussed during the survey period of mid-2017 through mid-2018. Some of the issues covered are the tort of intentional interference with inheritance rights, the enforcement of arbitration and forum-selection clauses in trusts and wills, the enforcement of exculpatory clauses in trusts, trustees paying attorney’s fees in litigation, removal of trustees, trustee’s power to dispose of trust property, settlor’s attempt to revoke an irrevocable trust, and life estates.

Search Tips:

You may use the wildcard symbol (*) as a root expander.  A search for "anti*" will find not only "anti", but also "anti-trust", "antique", etc.

Entering two terms together in a search field will behave as though an "OR" is being used.  For example, entering "Antique Motorcars" as a Client Name search will find results with either word in the Client Name.

Operators

AND and OR may be used in a search.  Note: they must be capitalized, e.g., "Project AND Finance." 

The + and - sign operators may be used.  The + sign indicates that the term immediately following is required, while the - sign indicates to omit results that contain that term. E.g., "+real -estate" says results must have "real" but not "estate".

To perform an exact phrase search, surround your search phrase with quotation marks.  For example, "Project Finance".

Searches are not case sensitive.
