California Court of Appeal

Soria v. Soria, G041661

In an appeal from the trial court's award of attorneys' fees on the ground that a trustee contested the claim by a beneficiary of the trust in bad faith, the order is reversed where Probate Code section 17211(b) did not permit recovery of attorney fees for the simple reason that the claimants did not contest a trustee‟s account.
