Term Definition
Breach of trust

A "trustee" is created by the terms of a trust agreement or the law of trusts. Any act or omission on the part of the trustee which is inconsistent with those terms creates a "breach of trust". A prime example is the redirecting of trust property from the trust to the trustee's personal use.
