MOTION TO SUBSTITUTE EUGENE V. DUPONT, IV AS SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE
______________________________________________________________________________
Plaintiff State Farm Fire and Casualty Company (“State Farm”) moves the Court for
leave to substitute Defendant Eugene V. DuPont, IV in place of Defendant Jeffrey A. Bush as
Successor Trustee of the Trust created pursuant to the Trust Agreement No. 0108FL dated April
9, 2008. State Farm has learned that Mr. DuPont is currently the Successor Trustee and is named
as such in the underlying lawsuit in Florida referenced in State Farm’s Complaint for Declaratory
Judgment. State Farm counsel has conferred with counsel for Defendants Robert L. Trentham
and Rebecca P. Trentham, who are the only defendants to have appeared in this matter, and the
Trenthams have no objection to the substitution.
