Sec. 115.425  What will we do if we find that a distribution plan has 

not been followed or an individual has acted improperly in regard to 
his or her duties

    If we find that a distribution plan has not been followed or that a 
custodial parent, a legal guardian, or the person who has been 
recognized by the BIA as having control and custody of the minor has 
failed to satisfactorily account for expenses or has not used the 
minor's funds for the primary benefit of the minor, we will:

expended trust funds or failed to account for the use of trust funds;
