What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY
I don't think my original post was quite compete. My parents had a trust drawn up about 10-12 years ago. I am the trustee, and it was my understanding that I was to equally divide the profits of the sale of the house and any assets between me and my siblings after my parents have passed. One of my siblings borrowed a large sum of money from my parents and is now refusing to pay it back. The amount borrowed is close to what he would receive from the assets. My mother would like me to just not include him when assets are divided. Can I do that? I'm almost positive that it is an irrevocable trust, so I don't believe we could have a lawyer just remove his name. Please advise, and TIA for any help.
