Nick Reiner Seeks Access to Trust Fund to Finance His Defense
Wealth Management
In a case involving trust law, criminal defense rights, and California's rarely invoked slayer statute, Wealth Management turned to Private Client Services Partner Marc M. Stern for insight on the fiduciary risks facing the trustee in the Nick Reiner case.
Excerpt:
Marc M. Stern, partner in Greenberg Glusker's Private Client Services Practice, explains that "[i]f distributions are made to the person and the person is ultimately convicted, the beneficiaries who would take if the person is determined to have predeceased the decedent under the slayer statute would have claims against the fiduciary for having made improper distributions to the person that reduced the funds available for the beneficiaries."
