Nick Reiner requests the trust fund money just for his criminal defense. He disputes directly with the trustee over the trust funds. The steward brings up the Spacer Statute as blocking access to the trust fund money. Reiner argues he never gave the trustee permission to retain the funds from him.
His attorneys press a California court to allow him access for the criminal defense costs. A new indictment maintains Reiner was lying in wait before murdering his parents Rob and Michele Reiner.
