Could anyone tell me how these Trusts are usually wound up?
In this case the grantor left a Discretionary Trust of property in a Will. The Trustee was named in the Will and there were 3 beneficiaries, trustee was not a beneficiary, but was Executor. After Probate was taken out the Trustee left the beneficiaries full use of the property in the trust
However the Trustee did not transfer named ownership to anyone. The trustee died about ten years later. Did the trust end then or does something need to happen to deal with it ?
