If you are an interested person such as a beneficiary of the trust, the executor should
provide you with a copy. The executor should also file a copy of the trust in the local
county. If the executor refuses to provide such trust or will information, an interested
person may file an action in the local probate court. You may benefit by consulting an
attorney who can represent you if the matter requires probate court action.

Mr. Martin is correct. Are you a beneficiary? That is the first inquiry. If so, the attorneys representing the Trustee should provide you a copy of what you need. Seek some legal guidance.
