Concerns About Beneficiaries Behavior Will Clause - 1 Clause

-  Suspension and Resumption of Payments to a Beneficiary Exhibiting Bad Behavior.
 

When a testator creates a trust for young beneficiaries, or a potentially long-term trust for such beneficiaries, the testator may express concern that if the beneficiaries exhibit what the testator would consider inappropriate behavior, payments for that beneficiary should be suspended. The areas of “bad behavior” most often cited by clients seem to be drug and alcohol abuse and joining a religious cult or terrorist organization. (Clause 1) gives the trustee of the trust the authority to suspend payments to any beneficiary who may exhibit such “bad behavior”.
