As beneficiaries you do. Ask for a copy.

I agree that only the beneficiaries have this right, unless someone raises an issue and litigates it.
I am presuming that something happens when the Grantor dies - either the trust is terminated or it continues as previously or as provided for upon the death of the Grantor.
