Heritage Breach of Trust

A Heritage Breach of Trust occurs when someone entrusted with managing or protecting family or cultural heritage—such as artifacts, traditions, or property—fails to do so responsibly. This breach involves misusing, neglecting, or unlawfully transferring these assets, violating the trust placed in them. It can lead to the loss, damage, or wrongful transfer of valuable cultural or familial heritage. Essentially, it’s a violation of the ethical or legal duty to safeguard important heritage assets for current and future generations.
