Rhew, 268 S.W.3d 309 (Ark. 2007), the court held that the Arkansas pretermitted heir statute does not apply to a revocable lifetime trust, expressly rejecting Restatement (Second) of Property, Donative Transfers § 34.2 which states that a pretermitted heir statute should apply to a will substitute.
