Jenson v. Jenson

Jenson v. Jenson, 2026 UT App 158 (Luthy, J.)

TRUSTS

The Utah Court of Appeals held:

The district court did not err in ruling that a trust agreement required appellant to transfer property and company shares to settlor on written request.

Practice tip:

When a settlor of a trust expressly reserves an unrestricted power that, in effect, allows the settlor to revoke the trust, the trust is revocable even if it contains a provision purporting to make the trust irrevocable.
