Opinion

MOORE, J.

Cynthia Jane Reynolds (defendant), individually and as trustee of the William Walker Reynolds, Jr., Living Trust, appeals from a judgment holding invalid the trust instrument she created pursuant to a power of attorney. She contends the court erroneously interpreted Probate Code section 4264, exceeded its authority in reconsidering an order denying a motion for summary judgment, and abused its discretion in sua sponte amending the complaint to state causes of action against her. We disagree with both her characterization of events and her legal conclusions, and affirm.
