Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF PENNSYLVANIA EASTERN DISTRICT

TRUST UNDER WILL OF AUGUSTUS T. : No. 203 EAL 2020 ASHTON, DECEASED DATED JANUARY : 20, 1950 : : Petition for Allowance of Appeal : from the Order of the Superior Court PETITION OF: ELIZABETH A. REED :

ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 2nd day of December, 2020, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal

is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioner, is:

Did the Superior Court err when it held that the equitable property interest in the trust res of a current vested beneficiary does not establish the beneficiary’s automatic standing to raise issues with the Trustees’ breach of fiduciary duties to the Trust, but instead a court must evaluate each and every beneficiary’s individualized financial loss to determine if it meets some unknown threshold sufficient to meet the “substantial, direct and immediate” test?
