Regions Bank, as Trustee of the J.f.b. Lowrey Trust v. Sam G. Lowrey, Jr.

Summary

Justice Murdock concurs with the Court’s decision, agreeing that the trustee is entitled to reimbursement of attorney fees only if those fees were properly incurred within the bounds of reason and not the result of fraud, bad faith, or an abuse of discretion. He emphasizes that the trial court’s role is to evaluate the reasonableness of fees already paid, not to set a fee amount from scratch.
