(1) a petition; or

(2) an objection to an accounting or report in a trust under court supervision.

(b) TREATED AS COMPLAINT. Unless a statute provides otherwise, on request of an interested person or on its own initiative, the court may order that a petition be treated as a complaint or that a complaint be filed.

(c) PROCEDURES FOR PETITIONS AND OBJECTIONS. Rule 105 governs the procedures for petitions and objections filed with respect to trusts, including service of petitions.

(d) NO CONTINUING SUPERVISION. Unless otherwise ordered by the court, after the conclusion of the proceeding, the court will not continue to supervise a trust action initiated under this rule.
