HRS §556-2
Safe payments to fiduciaries
If you pay money or give property to a fiduciary (like a trustee) in good faith, and they are allowed to receive it, you are not responsible for what they do with it. Your rights from that payment are still valid even if the fiduciary misuses the money.

The statute, as written — Application of payments made to fiduciaries
A person who in good faith pays or transfers to a fiduciary any money or other property which the fiduciary as such is authorized to receive, is not responsible for the proper application thereof by the fiduciary; and any right or title acquired from the fiduciary in consideration of such payment or transfer is not invalid in consequence of a misapplication by the fiduciary.
