Case Notes

Claims for Breach of Trust.

Beneficiary's claims that the trustee converted trust assets, deposited proceeds into her personal accounts, and actively concealed and failed to disclose her dealings with trust assets and investment of proceeds were assertions of breach of trust; therefore, the statute of limitations in the Arkansas Trust Code in § 28-73-1005 controlled, rather than the more general three-year tort limitations period in § 16-56-105. Peck v. Peck, 2019 Ark. App. 190, 575 S.W.3d 137 (2019).
