Deductibility Of Expenses For Child Care And Household Services: New Section 214, Alan L. Feld Apr 1972

Deductibility Of Expenses For Child Care And Household Services: New Section 214, Alan L. Feld

Faculty Scholarship

It is increasingly common to find families composed of husband, wife and young children, where both husband and wife are gainfully employed. For some, this pattern is regarded as preferable to the older "ideal" family, where the husband was the sole breadwinner and the wife cared for the children, performed household chores and perhaps engaged in social or charitable activities. Where both spouses are gainfully employed, it is often necessary for the family to employ household help to care for the children and do the housework. These expenditures are "necessary" to the gainful employment of both spouses in the sense …


Recent Legislation, J. Rodney Johnson Jan 1972

Recent Legislation, J. Rodney Johnson

University of Richmond Law Review

The 1972 session of the General Assembly was especially active in the areas of wills, trusts, and estates. Much of this legislation deals with fine points not affecting the average lawyer in his practice. However, the following items of legislation should be of general interest to the attorney whose practice involves probate work or estate planning, even though he does not hold himself out as a specialist in these areas.

Widow's Succession In Common-Law Property State To Husband's Rights In Her Half Of Community Property Is Taxable And Valued At One-Half Of Entire Community--In Re Kessler's Estate, Michigan Law Review Nov 1965

Widow's Succession In Common-Law Property State To Husband's Rights In Her Half Of Community Property Is Taxable And Valued At One-Half Of Entire Community--In Re Kessler's Estate, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

While residing with his wife in California, decedent purchased stock, which under California law became community property. The couple later moved to Ohio, a common-law property state, where decedent died. An Ohio probate court approved the executor's determination that the widow's one-half interest in the stock was not subject to the Ohio succession tax. On appeal by the state tax commissioner to the Ohio Supreme Court, held, reversed, three judges dissenting. A wife's succession to her husband's right to manage and control her half of the community property is subject to the Ohio succession tax on joint and survivorship …


Net Operating Loss Sustained By Taxpayer Prior To Marriage Cannot Be Applied Subsequently Against Spouse's Income- Calvin V. United States, Michigan Law Review Jun 1965

Net Operating Loss Sustained By Taxpayer Prior To Marriage Cannot Be Applied Subsequently Against Spouse's Income- Calvin V. United States, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Prior to marriage, plaintiff-wife sustained net operating losses which she was entitled to carry over under section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code. For the year 1959, the plaintiffs filed a joint return in which they applied the wife's net operating loss carryover deduction to both of their incomes. The Commissioner allowed the loss carryover to be applied to the wife's but not to the husband's income. In a suit for refund of taxes withheld from the husband's wages, held, judgment for defendant. If a husband and wife elect to file a joint return, net operating losses sustained by …


Marital Deduction Formula Clauses In Estate Planning-Estate And Income Tax Considerations, Alan N. Polasky Mar 1965

Marital Deduction Formula Clauses In Estate Planning-Estate And Income Tax Considerations, Alan N. Polasky

Michigan Law Review

Once upon a time, and not so very long ago, a child was born, much to the delight of its lawyer-parents. As children will, it brought much joy and only occasional moments of dismay and concern during its early, formative years. But one day it entered the terrible teens, and at age sixteen it became, like many teen-agers, baffling, confusing, and frustrating, giving rise to frenzied attempts to cope with and control the complexities of its behavior. Its name? The Federal Estate Tax Marital Deduction.

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. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue assessed as taxable gain the difference between the taxpayer's basis for the stock and its market value at the time of the transfer, but the Court of Claims ruled that the taxpayer realized no taxable gain from the transfer. On certiorari, held, reversed. The exchange was a taxable event in which the taxpayer received …

Transfers Of Joint Property In Contemplation Of Death: A Call For Immediate Statutory Revision, L. Hart Wright Nov 1956

Transfers Of Joint Property In Contemplation Of Death: A Call For Immediate Statutory Revision, L. Hart Wright

Michigan Law Review

For years the Tax Court sided with the government and the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in asserting that the contemplation-of-death provision of the estate tax act was sufficiently elastic to include the tax concept of ownership reflected in the joint-property provision of the same act. The alliance between those tribunals on this point was recently broken, however, when the Tax Court shifted to the competing view supported by taxpayers and the appellate court for the Ninth Circuit. It now believes that the two provisions mentioned above are complete strangers even though at one time these two were …

Taxation -Family Partnerships-Capital "Originating" With The Wife, Bayard E. Heath S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

In 1937 petitioner, P, gave his wife and sister each $2500 worth of stock in X Corporation. In 1940 he and A formed a partnership unrelated to the business of X corporation. Later in the year they decided to incorporate this partnership.

Taxation--Income Tax--Nondeductible Losses--Intra-Family Transactions, Bayard E. Heath S.Ed. Feb 1948

Taxation--Income Tax--Nondeductible Losses--Intra-Family Transactions, Bayard E. Heath S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Petitioner managed his wife's as well as his own estate. On several occasions, to establish tax losses, he ordered his broker to sell certain stock on the Stock Exchange for his account, and then to buy the same number of shares of the same stock for his wife's account. Petitioner claimed losses derived from these sales when filing his income tax return, but the commissioner disallowed these deductions on the authority of section 24 (b) of the Internal Revenue Code. On the taxpayer's application to the Tax Court, it held section 24 (b) inapplicable. The circuit court of appeals reversed …


Some General Aspects Of Michigan Community Property Law, William E. Burby Jan 1948

Some General Aspects Of Michigan Community Property Law, William E. Burby

Michigan Law Review

The common law, in recognition of the fact that one spouse is entitled to some economic security in the property of the other spouse, evolved the interests known as dower and curtesy. These interests, of course, apply only with respect to land. The husband enjoyed an additional economic advantage that came from the management and control of his wife's property. This latter advantage has disappeared with the advent of Married Women's Property Acts that confer upon married women the right to manage their own estates. Statutes have also expanded on the concept of dower and curtesy by providing for a …

Family Partnerships Under The Income Tax, Yale A. Barkan Oct 1945

Family Partnerships Under The Income Tax, Yale A. Barkan

Michigan Law Review

The usual type of family partnership has the taxpayer operating or organizing a business, and giving or selling a portion of that business to his wife or children. The aim of the taxpayer is to divide his income among members of the family group. The profits are thus taxed to two or more individuals, rather than to the taxpayer alone. Recognition of these family partnerships for federal income tax purposes is just one aspect of the family income problem.


Any More Light On Haddock V. Haddock? The Problem Of Domicil In Divorce, Harold Wright Holt Mar 1941

Any More Light On Haddock V. Haddock? The Problem Of Domicil In Divorce, Harold Wright Holt

Michigan Law Review

AT first glance it seems a work of foolhardiness or of supererogation to embark upon a rediscussion of any problems arising from Haddock v. Haddock. True, the decision of the majority of the Supreme Court in that case has not won wholehearted support from the bench or legal profession. True it is, also, that collusive divorces still flourish. These considerations alone might, perhaps, lead the reader to concede that it would not be unfruitful to speculate upon an eventual modification of some of the principles which the Court in that case approved. If, however, further justification is demanded of …
