You must look to the trust for direction as to the distribution of the trust property and the termination of the trust. The management of a trust is set forth in the document that created the trust. If there is not direction as to the termination and final distribution of the trust property then a judge must make that determination.

You can, but only if the lien is from a debt that is owed by the trust itself. If the debt is against the person who created the trust or against the person who is the beneficiary of the trust, then you cannot. The trust is considered a legal entity separate and apart from the individuals involved. The fact that it is a trust, as opposed to a person or business entity, does not prevent it from being liable for its debts.
