The parties in a 4-year battle for control of a polygamous church’s land trust are meeting with a judge to discuss the details of a settlement proposal.

The United Effort Plan Trust holds land and homes in Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Ariz. – towns dominated by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The state took control of the trust in 2005 after allegations of mismanagement.

Attorneys for the FLDS, the attorneys general of Utah and Arizona and a court-appointed fiduciary have spent 40 hours negotiating a settlement.

The parties were scheduled to meet with a 3rd District Court judge Wednesday.

The details of the settlement proposal are unclear, but issues include the distribution of property, access to parks and cemeteries and the payment of management fees.
