Conservatorship of Napier
Laura Jane Napier, a California resident, created an inter vivos trust in 2003, designating herself as trustee and sole lifetime beneficiary. After Laura was placed in a conservatorship, appellant Larry Napier (Napier), a Florida resident, became the trustee. When a dispute arose between Napier and Lauras conservator, respondent Debra J. Dolch, Dolch filed a petition for instructions. Napier appeared specially, arguing that California courts could not assert personal jurisdiction over him because he was a nonresident who had no contacts with California. The trial court rejected his argument and granted the relief requested by the conservator. Court affirm.
