Federal Estate Tax-Determination Of Marital Deduction In Community Property State When Surviving Spouse Elects To Take Under Decedent's Will, Jon E. Denney
Michigan Law Review

The widow elected to take under the will, thereby allowing her interest in the community property to pass as provided in the will.

The first of these arrangements, the death benefit plan, provided for three months' salary to be paid to an employee's widow, if the employee died before becoming eligible for retirement. The second, the deferred compensation plan, provided payment of a certain stated maximum to an employee's widow in sixty equal monthly installments. This was not a retirement program, however, since the employee himself would receive these payments if, and only if, he were ever to become …

Taxation-Federal Income Tax-Divocrce Property Settlement As A Taxable Event, Martin B. Dickinson Jr., S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Respondent taxpayer transferred stock to his former wife pursuant to a voluntary property settlement agreement incorporated in their divorce decree. As consideration for the securities conveyed, his wife released her rights to alimony, dower, and intestate succession under Delaware law.

On certiorari, held, reversed. The exchange was a taxable event in which the taxpayer received …
