JIMENEZ V. LEE
274 Or. 457, 547 P.2d 126 (1976)
NATURE OF THE CASE: Jiminez (P) appealed a decree dismissing her complaint against Lee
(D) to compel him to account for assets that P alleged were held in trust by the father as
trustee for her.
FACTS: As a minor, Jimenez (P) received a bond and a cash gift, which were held by her
and one of her parents jointly. The donors of these gifts intended for the money to be used
for P's education. P sued her father (D), alleging that the funds were held for her in
trust, and for an accounting of the funds. The lower court dismissed the complaint, holding
that D held the funds as P's custodian, pursuant to the Uniform Gift to Minors Act, and not
as a trustee. P appealed.
