What happens if an irrevocable trust was left to 7 beneficiaries but owner of the trust before his death quit claimed property to only one?
If the trust was set up as a testamentary trust the testator could have conveyed any property that she owned prior to her death. In that case the property would not become part of the estate nor part of the trust upon her death. There are many cases where a testator devised property in an outdated will that she no longer owned. That land is gone. It was not part of the trust property.

The testator gave property away as gift prior to their death. Can others mentioned in the will sue this person?
No. First, a will doesn't become effective until after the death of the testator. Second, only the property owned by the testator at the time of death becomes part of the estate. If they gave away their property during life, that property is gone and whoever received the gift during the life of the testator is the rightful owner. Remember that a person can do what they want with their own property while they are alive and a will only distributes any property owned at death.
