Description
We do not believe the provision in the eighth paragraph of the declaration of trust to the effect that the holder of a certificate of beneficial interest shall not have a right "to call for a partition or division of any account thereof in the courts, or to any right to institute a court proceeding of any nature whatsoever, except, at the expiration of the term of this trust, * * *," bars the plaintiffs from prosecuting either the principal or ancillary proceeding before us. It may be questioned, whether the restrictive provision quoted continued beyond the original five-year term fixed by the declaration of trust, but in any event, especially after the expiration of such period, it would seem certain that a beneficiary is not thereby precluded from asserting in court that the trust has expired and securing a judicial determination of this question. Obviously, if it is determined that the trust has not terminated, the restriction would be operative to the extent therein provided.
