I wondered if I could do it in an hour–quickly skim it. It took two days. And then some.
The writer proof-reads.
Most of all, the writer writes.

Ralph,
As you may or may not know, both Florida and Colorado have adopted the Uniform Trust Code (https://www.farrlawfirm.com/resources/list-of-states-that-have-adopted-the-uniform-trust-code/). For reference only, the Colorado version is here (https://leg.colorado.gov/sites/default/files/2018a_180_signed.pdf). Quotations, such as the one two paragraphs below, may reference this document. I have studied and made notes of Florida law (e.g., Probate Code, Trust Code, and numerous other criminal and civil sections); you may let me know how it differs from specific law governing the trust. I have compared and analyzed FL Trust Code 736 specifically with respect to this document and find them to be same in terms of intent.
This is a trust business communication and it is labeled as such. I would ask that you identify trust communications that way too. This is entirely business and not personal. As purported trustee (see below) I expect you to act in an impartial, loyal, and non-personal way too. Requirements that you must send should be sent to all qualified beneficiaries; a simpler way continues to be that you website, storage place for documents, and a method of communication.
I apologize if this letter/email is disjointed or needs updating or correction. Worse–it is not a legal document–it may contain errors. It is not meant to be rude,demonstrative or demanding. These are my rights per applicable law, and now I am forced to pursue monies lost and trustee stewardship. I have a lot to cover. With this in mind, I am going to number items I would like specific, documented or referenced, replies-to in terms of the trust and the laws. Please note that “action includes failure to act.” If I include references to proof or documents (such as those on my website, now pcpfeiffer.co), I expect that you read them and reply in my interest. This document, with updates or amendments, will provide preparation for a report relating to breach of fiduciary duty.
Prelude: The duty of a trustee is to act in good faith and in accordance with the terms and purposes of the trust and in the interests of the beneficiaries. Source: all over the web and in the above-cited document. I am including it here because you have not acted in this manner and you continue to ignore the laws and my rights. You may wish to consider employing a trust consultant, mediator, or arbitrator and and communicating with beneficiaries such an option. You should have from the beginning paid particular attention to these dual roles (https://www.kjmlaw.com/can-a-trustee-balance-dual-roles-as-a-beneficiary/).
One. I have written numerous times about my nine 4/18/24-5/24/24. I would like to make sure you have read them and I request a reply to each one. Several of those set the tone: communications, documents, and statements must come from you and you only. You have not proposed and I have not accepted a designee. Prior to my 4/2/25 letter I received one mailing from your attorney and that says repeatedly “courtesy copy.” I had not heard from you at all until you emailed me RE “initial distribution.” (EDIT: You emailed me several times about your courts harassment, even sending me email intended for your attorney!
Two. I require the information from you required by Fl. Rule 736.0813. This should also inform you of the role your attorney holds.
Three. All fin
