Tax Planning For Nontaxable Estates, William J. Bowe
Tax Planning For Nontaxable Estates, William J. Bowe
Vanderbilt Law Review
Owners of modest estates are always greatly relieved to learn of the liberal federal estate tax exemption of $60,000. Freed from the burden of federal estate tax planning they frequently turn their attention to methods of transferring property which will avoid the heavy cost and delay incident to probate administration. Joint ownership, gifts of remainder interests, donee-beneficiary contracts, revocable trusts are among the more common devices available. Use of any one of these plans may accomplish a shift in possession and enjoyment of property upon the death of the planner with no delay and minimum expense.
But the income tax …

Rights Of Creditors In Insurance -- The Tennessee Exemption Statutes, Paul J. Hartman
Rights Of Creditors In Insurance -- The Tennessee Exemption Statutes, Paul J. Hartman
Vanderbilt Law Review
The subject of the availability of assets to creditors is important when a trustee in bankruptcy as a representative of creditors is seeking to gather assets to pay off creditors; and the subject is of equal importance where a single creditor, not in a bankruptcy proceeding, is seeking to satisfy his claim out of the assets of his debtor. Whatever is property in the hands of the debtor is available to his creditors, unless it is exempt by law. This property is his estate, considered indifferently from the standpoint of the single creditor who seeks to realize for himself alone, …
Title By Adverse Possession In Tennessee, Allen Shoffner
Title By Adverse Possession In Tennessee, Allen Shoffner
Vanderbilt Law Review
The Tennessee courts have been unnecessarily burdened with the interpretation and application of ambiguous statutes; in consequence, the material to be found on adverse possession is voluminous and difficult to analyze. Yet the law on this subject seems to satisfy present day needs and is basically in accord with the policy of quieting titles. The method by which title may be acquired regardless of disabilities seems desirable. The seven-year defensive or possessory title statute, although peculiar in its nature, tends to encourage use and development of rural and mountainous lands. The presumption of a grant affords a way for one, …

Formal Requirements For Creation Of The Oil And Gas Lessee's Interest, William D. Warren
Formal Requirements For Creation Of The Oil And Gas Lessee's Interest, William D. Warren
Vanderbilt Law Review
The practice of the courts of employing almost as many varying and contradictory descriptions of the nature of the lessee's interest under the usual oil and gas lease as there are petroleum producing states has a historical origin which is clearly traceable. In the latter half of the nineteenth century as each of the known oil bearing states was slowly explored and developed for petroleum, it fell the lot of their courts to solve the complicated legal problems arising in this new and unique industry. Equipped with but little accurate scientific knowledge about the physical behavior of oil and gas, …
