Aguirre – Trust

Share B. The opposition does not cite any statutory or case authority.

Pursuant to Probate Code section 17206, “[t]he court in its discretion may make any orders and take any other action necessary or proper to dispose of the matters presented by the petition, including appointment of a temporary trustee to administer the trust in whole or in part.” Under that authority, the court GRANTS Jill’s motion and makes the following orders, effective immediately:

1. Any and all authority of Kimberly Zor Shaw to act as Trustee of the Stanley Joseph Zor and Elaine J. Zor Living Trust, as amended (the Trust) is suspended.

2. Thomas Trevor Murphy is appointed Interim Trustee of the Trust.

3. Kimberly Zor Shaw is ordered to turn over to Murphy any and all property of the Trust, including all assets as well as books, records, documents, and any information necessary to access and marshal Trust property/assets.

4. Murphy may not spend Trust assets to pay his own trustee fees or attorney fees without prior court approval. Neither may he sell, encumber, or otherwise transfer title to any Trust real property without prior court approval.

As Mr. Murphy is not named as a trustee in the Trust instrument, a bond is required. The parties should be prepared to address a date and briefing schedule for a bond review hearing.

The court notes that this ruling should not be taken in any way as a finding applicable to the pending petition or to the issue of who should be appointed as permanent successor trustee if Kimberly Zor Shaw is permanently removed as trustee.

Petitioner is directed to give notice.
