Chapter 16 - The trust petition
Daniel formally petitioned to remove me as co-trustee.
By then, the case looked different than he expected.
His argument:
My emotional involvement created conflict.
True to an extent.
Our response:
A corporate co-trustee already existed precisely to reduce unilateral influence.
The $1.8 million house request had been denied independently by both trustees.
Then came the manufactured “attachment instability” evidence.
The judge did not like it.
At all.
Mara’s deleted videos hurt.
Daniel’s knowledge hurt.
Dr. Porter’s testimony hurt more.
The petition failed.

But the court did something I supported.
It modified trust administration.
