49S04-1408-CR-564

Indiana Court of Appeals
In the Matter of the Irrevocable Trust of Mary Ruth Moeder; Susan R. Moeder v. Salin Bank & Trust Company
49A05-1403-TR-142
Trust. Affirms judgment in favor of Salin Bank on its petition to approve an accounting of the trust and to resign as trustee, as well as order that Susan Moeder personally pay $106,001.28 in attorney fees and costs Salin incurred in defending against her objection and claims. Denies the bank’s request for appellate attorney fees. The probate court did not abuse its discretion in granting Salin’s motion for a one-day continuance nor were its findings and conclusions clearly erroneous. It did not err in concluding that Moeder brought or continued to litigate a groundless claim.
