  • Testamentary Trusts
    TESTAMENTARY TRUSTS Trusts that are created pursuant to the terms of a probated Last Will and Testament are commonly referred to as “testamentary trusts.” 1. Applicable Law. The applicable law for these Trusts is the Kansas Probate Code (not the Kansas Trust Code). The authority of the probate court as to testamentary trusts is set forth at K.S.A. 59-103(7), as follows: to supervise the administration of trusts and powers created by wills admitted to probate, and trusts and powers created by written instruments other than by wills in favor of persons subject to conservatorship; to appoint and remove trustees for such trusts, to make all necessary orders relating to such trust estates, to direct and control the official acts of such trustees, and to settle their accounts. K.S.A. 59-103(a) Docket Fee for Trusteeship $69.50 [Rev. Ch. 80, Sec. 17, 2017 Sess. Laws] 2. Obtaining Appointment of Testamentary Trustee. Based upon the statutory grant of Court authority under K.S.A. 59-103(7), it appears necessary for a nominated testamentary trustee to be formally appointed by the Court. As a practical matter, the judicial grant of Letters of Trusteeship may be necessary to obtain delivery of the trust’s share of probate assets, to deal with banks and financial institutions (such as to open accounts), or to later sell assets. It is also appropriate to establish the formal commencement of the new fiduciary relationship and the Trustee’s formal acceptance of the obligation as fiduciary for the newly established testamentary trust.

  • Ademption by Extinction: Smiting Lord Thurlow's Ghost
    ADEMPTION BY EXTINCTION: SMITING LORD THURLOW'S GHOST John C. Paulus* INTRODUCTION Testator (T)properly executes a will giving his farm, Blackacre, to his daughter (D), and the rest of his property to his son (S). T lives with D on Blackacre. Three years later T sells Blackacre and buys Whiteacre. T and D live together on Whiteacre until T's death four years later. From numerous utterances and acts it is very evident that T wants D to have Whiteacre for her own after his death. Will Whiteacre go to D or S? In most (maybe all) of the states, the answer would be, "S." The identity rule enunciated by Lord Thurlow in 1786 is followed.' As indicated by its application to T, D, and S, the dominating philosophy can bring forth some unsatisfactory results. Lord Thurlow's opinion calls for the application of a simple test in determining whether or not a specific devise adeems: If the asset identified as the exclusive subject of the devise is not held by the testator at his death, the devise fails.' Ademption by extinction, as this problem area is uniformly called, is reduced to a matter of identifying, if possible, the devised item in the estate.' The most often quoted statement by Lord Thurlow is: "And I do * Professor of Law, Willamette University. Visiting Professor of Law, Texas Tech University 1970-71. 1. Ashburner v. Macguire, 29 Eng.

  • 26. Uniform Disclaimer of Property Interests Act
    CHAPTER 8.1 26. UNIFORM DISCLAIMER OF PROPERTY INTERESTS ACT. Drafting note: Existing Chapter 8.1 has been relocated to proposed Subtitle V due to its applicability to both probate and nonprobate transfers. Existing Chapter 8.1 is based on the Uniform Disclaimer of Property Interests Act promulgated by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws in 1999 as both a stand-alone act and a part of the Uniform Probate Code. Virginia enacted the Act in 2003. There is little variation between the language of the Act as promulgated and as adopted in Virginia. § 64.1-196.1 64.2-2600. Definitions. In As used in this chapter: "Disclaimant" means the person to whom a disclaimed interest or power would have passed had the disclaimer not been made. "Disclaimed interest" means the interest that would have passed to the disclaimant had the disclaimer not been made. "Disclaimer" means the refusal to accept an interest in or power over property. "Fiduciary" means a personal representative, trustee, agent acting under a power of attorney, or other person authorized to act as a fiduciary with respect to the property of another person. "Jointly held property" means property held in the name of two of more persons under an arrangement in which all holders have concurrent interests and under which the last surviving holder is entitled to the whole of the property and includes, without limitation, property held as tenants by the entirety. "Person" means an individual, corporation, business trust, estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company, association, joint venture, government, governmental subdivision, agency or instrumentality, public corporation, or any other legal or commercial entity.

Ferrera** “E-mail is ‘comparable in principle to sending a first class letter . .’.” —People v. Lipsitz1 I.

  • Georgia Probate Proceedings
    GEORGIA PROBATE PROCEEDINGS "WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR LOVED ONE DIES" INTRODUCTION There are a number of different proceedings which may be filed in the Probate court following the death of a Georgia resident or a non-resident owning property in the State of Georgia. Proceedings are filed in the Probate Court of the county of the decedent's residence in Georgia or in the county where property of a non-resident is located. This pamphlet briefly describes the usual, initial proceedings. For each proceeding described, there is a standard form, which the Court will provide to any petitioner. It is suggested that you discuss the matters of concern with an attorney who practices probate or estate law. An attorney can assist you in determining which proceeding is the most appropriate for your particular situation. Very often, there are other matters (e.g., tax returns, preparation of deeds, title transfers, benefit claims, creditor notices, debtor demands, etc.) which may also make it appropriate or necessary to seek the services of an attorney. If you proceed without an attorney, it will be your responsibility to determine or select the proceeding appropriate to your situation. The staff of the Probate Court may not make the determination or selection for you, since to do so may constitute the unauthorized practice of law, a misdemeanor crime under Georgia law. Neither the Court nor the County can accept responsibility for incorrect decisions made by the staff, and they have been directed to refrain from giving that kind of advice. It is also your responsibility to properly complete all forms, which must either be typed or legibly printed.

  • STUDENT ANSWER 1: 1. Testator's Will Is Valid. in Order for a Will to Be
    STUDENT ANSWER 1: 1. Testator’s will is valid. In order for a will to be valid, it must strictly adhere to the state’s formal requirements for validly executing a will. Before addressing those requirements, where a will contains an attestation clause or is executed by an attorney, there arises a presumption that the will was validly executed and will be admitted to probate unless contested as invalidly executed. Here, the will’s execution was overseen by an attorney and will give rise to the presumption. Most states adopt the following requirements: the will must be signed by the testator at the end of the will, the will must be in writing, it must be published as a will, and witnessed and signed by two witnesses. Here, testator’s will was in writing, and published. To publish a will, there must be a stated or demonstrated intent to make the document a will, which the testator did by declaring the document on the attorney’s desk to be his will before the witnesses (note that the law does not require testator to read the will’s contents to the witnesses). The will’s signing was also witnessed by two witnesses, who we can assume are not any of the named individuals in the will, and thus their two signatures are sufficient for all gifts to be valid within. Additionally, the law imposes no requirement that the pages need to be stapled together. Since the pages were kept together and not lost, the will may be valid. Here, the testator’s signature which was not placed at the end of the will, but rather before the attestation clause and witness signatures.
