Cundall v. Mitchell-Clyde
B293952
California Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District · Filed
Published · citable
Holding
The court held that a revocable trust may be revoked under Probate Code § 15401 (a)(2) unless the trust instrument **explicitly** states that its own revocation procedure is exclusive; the February Trust did not contain such an explicit exclusivity clause, so the settlor’s statutory revocation was valid despite the trust’s internal requirement that the settlor’s attorney sign the revocation. ---
