740 - Passings of Accounts as a Strategic Tool Beyond Retrospective Approval

This week on Hull on Estates, Jonathan Kappy and Osama Saleemi discuss the passing of accounts in estate, trust, and fiduciary matters, with a particular focus on how the process can be used creatively beyond its traditional retrospective function. The episode examines the limits of passing accounts, the court's role in reviewing fiduciary conduct, and how trustees and other fiduciaries may use the process to obtain practical assurance for proposed interim distributions, while remaining mindful of the boundaries of judicial discretion.
