HRS §556A-13
Getting trust digital assets when trustee is not the account owner
A trustee who is not the original account user can get a list of emails and other digital assets from the custodian, but not the email contents, if they provide the required documents and information. This only applies unless a court, the user, or the trust says otherwise.
