Be Wary to Vary and Exercise Discretion: Re Owies Family Trust

In this episode, Caite & Michele discuss:

• The family trust case of Re Owies Family Trust [2020] VSC 716
• Where the power to vary a trust was not sufficient to amend the description of the "Guardian and Appointor" of the trust
• Where the trustee was found not to have acted with 'real and genuine' consideration of potential beneficiaries of the family trust in relation to income distributions
• What's coming up in our next episode and a heads up on a little surprise we have coming up!.
