Texas Supreme Court

Perfect Union Lodge No. 10, A.f. and A.m., of San Antonio, Petitioner v. Interfirst Bank of San Antonio, N.a…

June 22, 1988748 S.W.2d 218

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the appellate court, holding that A.H. Lumpkin's will created a testamentary trust for his wife's life, that the probate court had jurisdiction over the trust, that the trustee was required to sell underproductive property, and that the deceased wife's estate is entitled to a share of the proceeds. Justice Ray dissented, arguing that no trust was created because the will did not vest legal title in the executors.
