Ghosted

 This is what I said in an affidavit January 10 2025.  

I told the beneficiaries that if they want to gift Jenny the rents due and owing to the estate they could do it  from their share of their inheritances  Again, I was ghosted.  For me this isn't only about the money, it is about the unethical stealth way, the probate was being done.  I expected honesty from the beneficiaries and due process from the lawyers.  What I got was uncertainty, stress, and betrayal, distrust of the legal process, and the lost of all hope of any meangful reunion with family members going forward.  

Note: The rent covered 2.5 years.  It was for a 4,000 square foot home on 20 acres of land outstide of Kamloops (Dallas), a ranch (with a pool) that would keep horses.  There was an estate settlement agreement and the estate lawyer wanted all the beneficiaries to sign off as there was some urgency, a red flag. The estate settlement agreement was designed so the administrator did not have to pay rent.  The beneficiaries who signed the agreement thought it was okay because they just wanted their inheritance, even at a steep discount. And they did not even inquire what the rent should have been.  Buyer beware. The estate was being looted in plain sight. And the beneficiaries were duped. 

Overwhelming Confusion

 I think I've overcome my overwhelming confusion. It is over lawyers and their hateful behaviour and how it negatively affects society when they use CBA to probate an estate. This is a pattern that most estate lawyers use, clients are profit centers.  They are not concerned that CBA erodes the rule of law.  It is evil. Money over fiduciary trust. To say it is efficient is a lie. In the longrun costs are higher. CBA is morally illegal.  And, it is becoming mainstream as clients are not even told by their lawyers that they are using CBA. Trust me you are told.  And when clients find out, if they ever find out, it is too late to say no. You are committed to an outrageous legal bill.  If you as a client have no want of honesty and no respect for the law, you cheer in the ignorance that you are getting an ill-sought benefit. Or you fall into the category that "there is a sucker born every minute."  meaning you.  Anger.  Horrorfic humilitation. Not what I signed up for.  Bottom line: CBA cuts procedural process.  Forget about challenging an unfit administtrator, we will wait until the passing of accounts, more legal fees.  There is no savings. There is no best practice.  If there is no due process, there is no law. 

CBA model, cost benefit analysis, a slow creep by estate lawyers since the 1980s.  

Fiduciary Law v Constitutional Law 2

  Like the Constitution, you do not mess with Fiduciary Law.  Both are sacrosanct.  Untouchable. So you would think.  

With Constitution Law anyone can police it (citizens, journalists, the courts).  With Fiduciary Law only an interested party can police it.  If you are not a beneficiary, you are out of luck. 

Using CBA for estates invites immediate rot. There is no honour only hallucinated cost benefit analysis, it is quick and dirty.  

CBA eats away at the rule of law.  

Fiduciary Law v. the Constitution

 Like the Constitution, you do not mess with Fiduciary Law.  Both are sacrosanct.  Untouchable. So you would think.  

With Constitution Law anyone can police it.  With Fiduciary Law only an interested party (a beneficiary) can police it.  

Enter CBA and the rule of law for Fiduciary Law is eroded.  There is no honour only hallucinated cost benefit analysis.  

A Family Torn Apart.

 

🕊️ A Family Torn Apart (AI)

Mary was 78 and frail, but she loved her home. Her daughter had been living with her, helping with meals, shopping, and company. A neighbour, uneasy about a loud argument, reported “possible abuse” to authorities. Without a thorough investigation, the Public Guardian and Trustee stepped in.

On “protective” grounds, Mary was moved into a care facility. Her daughter was told she could no longer live with her mother — and visits were restricted. The allegation was never proven. No judge heard evidence. No one asked Mary what she wanted.

The PGT said it was acting “in Mary’s best interests.” But the result was devastating: Mary lost her home, her companion, and her voice in the decision. The daughter was stigmatized as unfit, with no chance to clear her name.

This is how families are destroyed not by malice, but by flimsy evidence and unchecked power. The PGT calls it protection. To those living it, it feels like betrayal.

Yes, it does happen. Family members are bullied and they cave. Everyone consents to silence/privacy.  The wrong goes unnoticed.

Justice delayed is Justice denied.

 When a lawyer in an estate says when he refuses to challenge a administrator who has conflicts by saying such conflicts will be decided at the passing of accounts, this to me is a perversion of justice.  Justice is delayed and full Justice will be denied.  The value of the justice will be lessened when a lawyer in an estate refuses to challenge an administrator who has conflicts of interest, stating that such conflicts will be addressed during the passing of accounts. I consider this a perversion of justice. Delaying justice only serves to erode its value. As a result, the administrator gains more than the other beneficiaries, while the lawyers profit from postponing their involvement until the passing of accounts, ensuring a quick return on their minimal investment. This situation is corrupt. Often, the beneficiaries may not even be aware that the administrator has conflicts of interest, and the estate is entitled to reimbursement for self-dealing, such as using estate resources for a trip to Las Vegas. The administrator benefits more than the other beneficiaries, and the lawyers benefit by delaying most of their work until the passing of accounts, which assures them a fast profit on their minimal investment.  It is corrupt. For the most part, the beneficiaries might not even know that the administrator has conflicts and the estate is entitled to be reimbursed for self-dealing, for example, using an estate vehicle for a trip to Las Vegas.
