This is a link to the original trust which names myself as the Trustee.
Elvin R Meek original 1996 Trust
Below is page from Dad's 1996 Trust naming myself as trustee:
Below is a letter composed by Dad's long time friend Wes Stewart in June of 2005, addressed to Elizabeth Meek, an insight into events which took place during his final days. During the Evidentiary Hearing in July of 2010 we submitted the letter as evidence however Elizabeth's attorneys objected and Judge Derrick H.M. Chan in Hawaii would not allow the letter to be admitted.

Findings of Fact re Evidentiary Hearing
Forensic Specialist Reed Hayes Forensic Report on 1st Amendment stating the signatures are forged
Elizabeth admitted during the Evidentiary hearing in July of 2010 she DID NOT sign the 1st Amendment in California. And the signatures on the document were not her's or my father's.
Attorney Robert Jones Affidavit prepared by Bank of Hawaii, executed by Jones and filed November 2005 declaring the 1st Amendment was signed TWICE (in Hawaii and three days later in California) Later we obtained a copy of the document supposedly signed in California and the signatures were indeed fraudulent, there were no numbered pages or notarization. It would appear Mr. Jones was caught in a lie. This of course makes us question the validity of the 1st Amendment executed in Hawaii. We know there was a 1st Amendment signed in Hawaii, evidenced by the Notary page obtained from Susan Strong, Notary for Bank of Hawaii. However we allege the 1st amendment was probably a few pages long and not the 22 page document which appeared AFTER dad died. Yet another document Judge Derrick Chan would not allow us to admit as evidence.
Below is a letter entered into evidence by Cades Shutte at the Evidentiary Hearing. What is questionable about this letter is we didn't see it until the closed evidentiary hearing in July of 2010 and we suspect it was created by Jones AFTER our father died. Notice he requests Dad provide him with a the original 1st Amendment as he doesn't have a "signed copy" in his office. The letter is dated September 17, 2003. If Jones didn't have a signed copy in his office then who provided the Bank of Hawaii with the signed, later determined to be forged signatures? This letter conflicts with what he alleges in his 2005 Affidavit which states Dad signed the 1st Amendment AGAIN in his office in September of 1997.
Another Letter also submitted by Cades Shutte as evidence at the July 2010 closed evidentiary hearing, dated September 10, 1997, unsigned by secretary Cindy Hemming, outlining the enclosure of the 1st Amendment to be signed in Hawaii. If Dad was going to be in Jones' office in Atascadero a few days later, why would Dad have Attorney Jones send a copy of the 1st Amendment for signing in Hawaii? We don't dispute there was a 1st Amendment however it was probably only a few pages and not the 22 page unnumbered document which re-wrote the trust. Our investigator spoke with Cindy Hemming who cannot recall the 1st Amendment however she agrees they would not have sent a 22 page 1st Amendment, instead they would have written another Trust. The letter is unsigned and Ms. Hemming was adamant that she would not have sent a document as crucial as a re-written trust without signing the cover letter. And the letter indicates including a notary acknowledgement. The document provided by Mr. Jones and signed in Hawaii has the word Atascadero crossed out and Honolulu written in.
This letter below was precluded by a letter we sent to Elizabeth in August of 2004 inquiring as to why she wasn’t returning our phone calls, was she alright etc. Again we had never had cross words with her. Notice Attorney Jones states she doesn’t feel comfortable communicating with myself or Melvin, he doesn’t mention Lola. During questioning at the Deposition held in May of 2010 Elizabeth stated she did not contact us after Dad died because we had left nasty messages on her answering machine. That is a lie. She also stated she would not communicate with us because we had placed defamations on the internet. This was a lie as well, as we did not post anything on the internet until March of 2006 and only out of frustration over not having any direct communication with her. And also being left in the dark by the Bank of Hawaii as well as her attorneys as to what was happening with the estate.
Our Motion for Discovery (which later turned into a Motion to Compel for Discovery due to the reluctance of Cades Shutte to provide us documents requested) was denied by Judge Hirai and yet the Motion for Discovery filed by Cades Shutte was upheld.
Elizabeth Meek's Deposition taken by myself. (notice her attorneys object to every other question that is asked.)

Bank of Hawaii documents
We have documentation reflecting the Bank of Hawaii had knowledge of sales of several of dad’s properties including one of his condos at Waipuna sold for over $600,000 and yet the tax returns filed four years late reflect the property was only worth approximately $300,000. The billing statements also reflect several conversations in 2005 between Bank of Hawaii discussing the questionable validity of both the 1st Amendments.

Letter and pleadings regarding Attorney Robert Grigger Jones Kelly Gearhart Pe Ji Ho Ta Indian casino scam.
Letter to Attorney Robert Grigger Jones dated February 2009 requesting communication and updates on our father's estateLetter from San Luis Obispo DA regarding the criminal investigation into Attorney Robert Grigger Jones for forgery and fraud (it is now at the federal level and therefore they are not pursuing the investigation or criminal prosecution, at least that is what they told us in July of 2011)
2008 Legal expenses by Elizabeth's attorneys. Documented by East West Wealth Management accountant Francis Lui-Kwan over $43,000 in legal expenses for 2008. Preparing the accounting Francis Lui-Kwan charges over $17,000 each year. Ms. Kwan previously worked for Bank of Hawaii and was working for the bank in 2004 when our litigation began.
Affidavit in Support of Fees for Elizabeth's attorneys at Law firm Cades Shutte filed April of 2011
Bank of Hawaii acceptance of Co-Trustee - Hearing March 2005 and granted by Judge Tangeman:
Letter from Bank of Hawaii dated May 22, 2007 removing themselves as Co-trustee of Estate. (This was just weeks after the courts in San Luis Obispo California denied their attorneys motion to have the probate moved BACK to California)
Why did the attorneys for Bank of Hawaii request the case be moved back to California away from Hawaii courts?
Medical Forensic Report reflecting Dad was 100% incapacitated when he signed the 2nd Amendment and last Will (this document was admitted as evidence during the Evidentiary Hearing and Judge Chan also denied our request to have it admitted as evidence.)
Elizabeth it would appear from the hospital records obtained, went out of her way defaming us to hospital staff, at times saying “Elvin’s children don’t stay in touch with him and live far away.” She is also quoted by others from Palau as saying “Elvin’s children are evil”.
Page from Medical records obtained: (it should be noted Attorney Grigger Jones was furious when he discovered I obtained boxes containing ALL of the medical records. Why was he so angry? This transcript from Straub Medical Clinic prepared by Dr. Zerez was completed two days before the Last Will and 2nd Amendment were signed at Bank of Hawaii) We asked to have this document admitted during the evidentiary hearing in July 2010 and our request was denied by Judge Chan.
NOTICE OF APPEAL filed October of 2010 (our Appeal was denied after we were unable to pay $3,000 the court demanded of us to proceed. We did obtain the court CD recordings from the Evidentiary Hearing however they demanded we pay $3,000 to obtain the typed transcripts or we could not proceed with the Appeal. I was told later the $3,000 fee demand was not part of the appeals protocol. So why were we asked to pay the money?Request by Cades Shutte to SEAL the Accounting of the Estate filed April 2011 (if there is nothing to hide why did they ask to have the accounting sealed?) Judge Derrick Chan approved the request

Fraudulent signatures on 1st Amendment supposedly signed in California in Attorney Jones office as per his affidavit
Below is the signature page from the 1996 original trust which names me as the trustee. Compare the signatures above on the forged document.

Another example of Elizabeth's signature from 2004 while selling the property in Arkansas
Notice Attorney Robert Jones is the contact person.
Card Sent to my brother AFTER Dad died with handwriting which mimics our father's. When my brother received this card from Elizabeth for Christmas of 2003 he was taken aback at how much it matched Dad's handwriting. Judge Chan would not allow us to submit the original card seen here as evidence during the evidentiary hearing.
Notice the weakness in our father's signature above as it appears on the hospital admission papers dated 9/6/2003 compared to the strong signature on his original 1996 Trust above
Dad's Cremation bill signed by Elizabeth Meek
------------------------------------------Trust Certification executed in February of 2004 (3 months after Dad died) It does not mention the original 1996 Trust however it alludes to the 1992 Trust which was negated by the 1996 trust. We allege Elizabeth executed and Jones prepared this Trust Certification to assist her in cashing out the stocks worth over $646,000 the exact buy in for the partners in the Pe Ji Ho Ta casino Attorney Jones was involved with. If Jones had been following the law he would have presented them with the 1996 Trust and of course the supposed 1st Amendment.Certification of Trust
Could it be Jones hadn’t created the 1st Amendment he alleges is the operative document? Or was it because the 1992 document had Elizabeth as the trustee, and the 1996 trust had myself as the trustee?
---------------------------------------------------
FIRST AMENDMENT TO 1996 ELVIN R MEEK ORIGINAL TRUST (with fraudulent signatures)
The 1st Amendment 22 page document supposedly executed before Dad died. This is the document with the confirmed forged signatures. This document follows the 1996 Original Trust in which my father named myself as the Trustee. If you study this document it is clear it was a last minute cut and paste job created by Attorney Jones after Dad died and essentially hands over the entire trust to our stepmother, a Palauan national, with the Bank of Hawaii as co-trustee. My father was an attorney, why would he name a co-trustee with a woman who was clearly unqualified to handle a $4.2 million dollar trust only one year after executing his original 1996 trust which named myself as the trustee?
Interesting this document keeps referring to laws in CALIFORNIA and not laws in Hawaii. It would appear Attorney Jones wanted to keep all the litigation in California since he wasn’t licensed to practice in Hawaii. Had we not objected to what he was doing early on in California, we allege the case would never have been moved to Hawaii. If Dad resided in Hawaii when this was supposedly signed, why would there be references to California law and not Hawaii law? Keep in mind my father was an attorney.
----------------------------------------------------
Second Amendment to the trust executed September 22, 2003 at Bank of Hawaii with Palauan native, friend of Elizabeth Meek and Bank of Hawaii employee (also Palauan) Heidi Emery witnessing. This document was signed only days before Dad fell and lapsed into a coma. Also this was while he was incapacitated and gravelly ill. Also changing the percentage of the distribution is highly suspect because Dad was not happy with Lola and learned she had changed her name back to Lola Reklai which was the name of her biological father. He would never have made a conscious decision of leaving Lola 50% of anything. This was obviously constructed by Elizabeth with the assist of Robert Jones. Notice how weak Dad's signature is.
Last Will and Testament 2003 created just days before Dad fell and lapsed into a coma. While this document was executed evidence reflects dad was 100% incapacitated. Notice his signature is very weak: Last Will and Testament link

2011 ORDER REMOVING Nanci Meek as Beneficiary for contesting the fraudulent and forged documents. We didn't learn of this until October of 2012, so dissapointing since I was not even told of a hearing to discuss my removal.
