Terms Used In Louisiana Revised Statutes 9:2193

  • Beneficiary: A person who is entitled to receive the benefits or proceeds of a will, trust, insurance policy, retirement plan, annuity, or other contract. Source: OCC
  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.
  • Trustee: A person or institution holding and administering property in trust.

If the trust estate is not sufficient to indemnify a trustee for expenses properly incurred by him in the administration of a trust, a beneficiary shall be personally liable only if the trustee can show an express or implied contract between that beneficiary and himself that would entitle the trustee to indemnity.
