Newman v. Liebig
Annotate this CaseThis appeal involved an allegedly void trust that was executed and recorded in 1979 and to which several parcels of real property were purportedly deeded. The trust terms provided that it would terminate in 2004. In 2008, the trustees of the questioned trust deeded the property to the trust's purported beneficiaries. One of the settlor's children sued to set aside the trust and deeds and to quiet title in the property to the settlor's heirs at law. The district court determined that the plaintiff's claims were barred by the statute of limitations. At issue on appeal was when the applicable statute of limitations began to run. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the statute of limitations for the plaintiff's claims had expired.
