Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

my husband is a named person on a trust acct. his mother and sister are the CO- executors. Because his mother would NOT allow my husband to be NAMED as a co-executor along with them, he retained his own att. we didnt contest the naming of his sister as the co-executor. although the judge found that there should be a bond on the trust to protect him from any harm. he just recently asked for a $10,000.00 loan from the trust. Hissister and his mother are blackmailing him to fire his att. so she doesn't have to pay for the $5,000.00 fee for the BOND AND SHE WILL GIVE HIM THE LOAN. WOULDN'T SHE BE IN VIOLATION OF A COURT ORDER IF SHE DOESN'T PAY FOR THE BOND EVEN IF HE DOES FIRES HIS ATT. TO GET THE LOAN?

Since your husband has an attorney, it would be inappropriate to discuss the facts and merits of the case here. Generally, if the court orders that something be done and it is not done within the time frame required, it is a violation of court order.
