This week on Hull on Estates Megan Connolly and Craig Vander Zee discuss the topic of the estate trustee during litigation (ETDL). Their discussion is based off a paper Paul Trudelle prepared and spoke about at the Hull and Hull breakfast series on June 4, 2009. They look at the circumstances when you would need an ETDL, the procedure for appointing the ETDL and the powers and duties of the ETDL. For more information on this topic, see: Jordan Atin's article, The Estate Trustee During Litigation, in 'Estate Litigation' by Brian A. Schnurr. volume 2. 2nd ed. (Toronto: Thomson Carswell, 2000) If you have any comments, send us an email at [email protected] or leave a comment on our blog.
