Trust Formation And Jurisdiction

Summary

The location where a trust is formed is significant as it determines the laws governing the trust. Judges can access trust records if relevant to a case, but the laws governing the trusts operation depend on where it was formed. If a trusts property was bought with ill-gotten gains, it could face legal scrutiny. The trustees role and responsibilities depend on trust laws where its established. If innocent, the trustee should cooperate with authorities. In Texas, forging a deed is a third-degree felony, and the sale is void. The original owner may reclaim the property, and the LLC could face legal scrutiny. Property records in foreign countries can be accessed through local resources or services.

Why consult a Caymen Islands lawyer if the judge can do whatever he wants regardless of the jusistiction.

In general, a US judge can't directly access foreign bank accounts. However, if relevant to a case, they could issue a court order requesting access. This often involves international legal cooperation. Consulting a lawyer can provide specific advice.
The case I'm working on is a case where a trust holds a property that may have been purchased with ill gotten gains without the trustee knowledge. The trustee is not compelled to cooperare when they've done nothing wrong.
I understand your situation. If the trust's property was indeed bought with ill-gotten gains, it could face legal scrutiny. However:
- The trustee's role and responsibilities depend on trust laws where it's established.
- If innocent, the trustee should cooperate with authorities to clarify their position.
Please consult a lawyer for detailed advice.
The property held in trust was accuired legally. It's associated with the proceeds of a bad property sale. Viewing the bank records won't show anything.
If the property was acquired legally, it's crucial to have evidence to support this claim. This could include transaction records, contracts, or other supporting documents. Consulting a lawyer can help you prepare a strong defense. Could you please specify your location to provide more tailored advice?
Can you provide court case examples??
Certainly, I can provide examples, but I would need to know the jurisdiction or country you're interested in as the laws and cases can vary. Could you please specify this?
In texas or any state. If a person forges a deed, sells the property, uses the fund to buy a new propety and then transfers ownership to an LLC that is unaware of the fraud. What happened?
In Texas, if a deed is forged:
