SMULOWITZ, Assistant Manager HENRY LANKFORD, Assistant Manager JOSEPH P. MCKEEHAN, Faculty Manager PARTIAL SPENDTHRIFT TRUSTS by William G. Williams A spendthrift trust is a trust in which both voluntary and involuntary alienation are restricted, i.e., the benefiiciary cannot assign his interest (voluntary alienation) and the beneficiary's creditors cannot attach his interest for his debts and liabilities (involuntary alienation). Or, as stated in In re Keeler's Estate, 3A. (2d) 413 (Pa.), a spendthrift trust "exists where there is an express provision forbidding anticipatory alienation and attachments by creditors." In case of a legal life estate it is the general rule that a direct restraint upon alienation, vol- untary or involuntary, is invalid; but in most jurisdictions, the settlor of a trust may impose both of these restraints upon the equitable estate and they will be given effect, at least where there is provision, express or implied, against both.

  • Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action Before the U.S
    Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Commerce and Consumer Protection H.R. 1754, "The Horseracing Integrity Act" January 28, 2020 On behalf of Animal Wellness Action, one of the nation's leading animal protection organizations on Capitol Hill, I submit this testimony in support of H.R. 1754, the Horseracing Integrity Act. I express my sincere thanks to Chair Jan Schakowsky and Ranking Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers for conducting this hearing and offer special thanks to Representatives Paul Tonko, and, Andy Barr for introducing this reform effort. I also express thanks to Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Frank Pallone and Ranking Member Greg Walden for their participation in this process. This hearing builds on the testimony and other information gathered during the 2018 hearing conducted before the Subcommittee on H.R. 2651 in the 115th Congress. I first want to underscore that Animal Wellness Action does not oppose horseracing. We join with many horse owners, breeders, trainers, and racing enthusiasts in speaking out on the broader topic of the protection of horses within the American horseracing industry and across the greater equine world. We seek to promote the proper stewardship of horses at every stage of their lives, including during their racing careers. We are deeply concerned about on- and off- track risks to the horses, including catastrophic injuries sustained during racing. America was built on the backs of horses, and they have always played a central role in the economy and culture of the United States. We owe them a debt of gratitude, and the very least we must do is ensure their safety, welfare, and protection.

Blackberry Wine has crossed the wire first on three occasions, but, so far as his official record goes, only one counts. He was disqualified from purse money in two of his starts after testing positive for the drug levamisole. Because of the demotions, he fits the conditions of the upcoming race, which is for horses who have never won two races. Coming off a 13-length win in a maiden race, from which he did not test positive for any illegal medications, Blackberry Wine will be among the favorites Saturday (Scabbard is the 5-2 morning-line choice).
