  • Complaint: A written statement by the plaintiff stating the wrongs allegedly committed by the defendant.
  • Trustee: A person or institution holding and administering property in trust.

Where there is a co-trustee, then the court shall authorize the co-trustee to act without appointing a temporary trustee, unless the trust instrument expressly requires that a vacancy in the trusteeship be filled.
     (c) Order that the co-trustee or temporary trustee may exercise any or all of the powers, duties and discretions of the trustee in war service. The court may include a provision for the reasonable compensation of the co-trustee or temporary trustee.
