Facts
This action arises out of P's attempts to obtain compensation for child support and alimony arrearages owed to her by her ex-husband, Charles Anton (Anton). Anton is a beneficiary of the trust at issue herein. P sought to compel Mary Ann Gualtieri and Maria Christine Torres (Ds), the trust's successor co-trustees, to make income distribution payments to Anton, out of which P could then seek payment of Anton's child support and alimony arrearages. P argues that the probate court erred by finding that the trust is a purely discretionary trust and that she is not entitled to compensation for Anton's outstanding child support and alimony arrearages out of income distributions made to Anton from the trust. P appealed. P argues that the trust is a support or spendthrift trust, and Ds argue that the trust is a discretionary trust.
