Perpetuities: Basic Clarity, Muddled Reform, Robert L. Fletcher
Perpetuities: Basic Clarity, Muddled Reform, Robert L. Fletcher
Washington Law Review
This piece is intended to present the Rule Against Perpetuities, including its recent modifications, simply and understandably. Because the Rule's mechanics, even in their neatest and purest form, have seemed beyond average comprehension, the explanation given here largely brushes over minor variants in the common law expression of the Rule and its operation. The goal is to ensure that the real core of the Rule is clearly portrayed.

The Twentieth-Century Revolution In Family Wealth Transmission, John H. Langbein
The Twentieth-Century Revolution In Family Wealth Transmission, John H. Langbein
Michigan Law Review
The main purpose of this article is to sound a pair of themes about the ways in which these great changes in the nature of wealth have become associated with changes of perhaps comparable magnitude in the timing and in the character of family wealth transmission. My first theme, developed in Part II, concerns human capital. Whereas of old, wealth transmission from parents to children tended to center upon major items of patrimony such as the family farm or the family firm, today for the broad middle classes, wealth transmission centers on a radically different kind of asset: the investment …

Wills, Trusts And Estates (Annual Survey Of Virginia Law, 1987-88), J. Rodney Johnson
Law Faculty Publications
The 1988 session of the General Assembly enacted legislation dealing with wills, trusts, and estates that added, amended, or repealed a number of sections of the Code of Virginia (the Code). In addition to this legislation, there were six cases from the Virginia Supreme Court, and one case from the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, in the year ending June 1, 1988, that involved issues of interest to both the general practitioner and the specialist in wills, trusts, and estates. This article analyzes each of these legislative and judicial developments.

Analytical Principle: A Guide For Lapse Survivorship, Death Without Issue, And The Rule, Raymond C. O'Brien
Analytical Principle: A Guide For Lapse Survivorship, Death Without Issue, And The Rule, Raymond C. O'Brien
Scholarly Articles
It is the purpose of this article to develop an analytical principle-meaning a logical approach-by which we can predict, explain, and even modify the often absent or bizarre intention of any settlor, donor, or scrivener. This intention includes future interests passing through lapse, express and implied conditions of survivorship, death without issue, and the Rule. These four subjects are treated as constant and yet are among the most complicated non-tax related issues of trusts and estates. Applying an analytical principle to them is meant to offer a concrete basis upon which the scrivener and the settlor can add related issues, …
Family Protection Under Kentucky's Inheritance Laws: Is The Family Really Protected?, Carolyn S. Bratt
Family Protection Under Kentucky's Inheritance Laws: Is The Family Really Protected?, Carolyn S. Bratt
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Courts and legislatures always have granted widows some protection from the economic hardships that their husbands' deaths cause. At the earliest common law, a surviving wife was entitled to dower in the form of a right to remain in her husband's home along with the other heirs after the husband's death. Today, the states have enacted a variety of statutory devices that provide protection for families who might otherwise experience financial hardship upon the death of a spouse or parent. The older types of statutory safeguards take the form of homestead and personal property exemptions. Typically, the probate homestead exemption …
