    Inquiring into a revocable family trust
    Several years ago I was named as a one of many beneficiaries of my grandfather's Revocable Living Trust. My grandfather passed away and my mother (his daughter) became the trustee.

    Do I have a right to know how the assets of the trust are being managed? How do I find out the status of the trust? And can a trustee revoke a Revocable Living Trust without notifying the beneficiaries?

It was my understanding that if a grantor set up a revocable trust and a third party (let's say a bank) was named as trustee, the trustee was required to file a Form 1041. I am unable to locate any IRC or other guidance that would confirm or deny this. Please help. Thank you. Diana
