1.

Pop opened an account for Junior as an UTMA account. The state where the account was opened provides that beneficiaries of UTMA accounts become "of age" at twenty-two. Junior calls the broker on his twenty-second birthday and instructs him to liquidate the account and send him the proceeds. The broker complies with the request. Does the broker have any liability?
- (A)No.
- (B)Yes, because he should have checked with Pop before accepting Junior's instructions.
- (C)Yes, because UTMA accounts remain in fiduciary status until the beneficiary gives the broker proof of age and signs the necessary paperwork.
- (D)Yes, because the assets in the UTMA account do not belong to Junior.
