Indiana Court of Appeals
Cheryl Barron Doll v. Steven E Post, et al.
19A-TR-715
Trust. Reverses the DeKalb Superior Court’s judgment denying Cheryl Doll’s motion to intervene based on the trial court’s interpretation of the residuary clause of Ollie Waid Jr.’s revocable living trust. Finds the language of the residuary clause does not identify a beneficiary with reasonable certainty. Remands and instructs the trial court to grant Doll’s motion to intervene and to direct trustee Steven Post to hold the reside of the trust for Waid’s estate, and instructs the court to direct Post to distribute the residue to Waid’s heirs at law pursuant to the appellate court’s intestate succession statutes.
