Barry v. Barry, 357 Ga.App 479 (2020)
Oct 30, 2020OUTCOME: A contesting Beneficiary forfeited her inheritance by contesting the good faith judgment of the Trustee.
We defended a Trustee against the claims of a Beneficiary that contested the validity of provisions of Grantor's trust that named the Trustee and granted him authority to value and divide the trust. W ... e proved the Beneficiary's actions were sufficient to invoke the in terrorem clause of the trust and cause her to forfeit her beneficial interest in the trust. We proved the Beneficiary filed a lawsuit in which she repeatedly, relentlessly, and in bad faith contested the Trustee's actions, and, consequently, forfeited her beneficial interests.
