This study discusses the issues of harta sepencarian (jointly-accumulated wealth) in the Syariah Court of Singapore. The objectives of this study are to examine the meaning and interpretation of harta sepencarian, and the influence of direct and indirect contributions in determining the amount received by the husband and wife from the harta sepencarian. Although the AMLA has provided general guidelines and interpretation on the factors which need to be taken into consideration when determining the distribution of harta sepencarian, but these guidelines do not distinguish between the main and supporting factors. Through literature studies, case-studies of Court cases and interviews, …
Should Charitable Trust Enforcement Rights Be Assignable?,

Should Charitable Trust Enforcement Rights Be Assignable?, Joshua C. Tate
Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters
In recent years, scholars have given much attention to the problem of charitable trust enforcement. Departing from the common law, section 405(c) of the Uniform Trust Code provides that “[t]he settlor of a charitable trust, among others, may maintain a proceeding to enforce the trust.” This Article addresses the question of whether, and to what extent, a settlor’s right to enforce a charitable trust should be assignable to third parties. Should the law permit the settlor of a charitable trust to assign her enforcement rights after the creation of the trust, or should assignments be recognized only if they are …

Integrating Catholic Social Thought In Elder Law And Estate Planning Courses: Reflections On Law, Age And Ethics, Lucia A. Silecchia
Scholarly Articles
A course in elder law or estate planning encompasses many of the most profound issues that arise in human life: the contemplation of mortality, ambivalent attitudes toward property and its proper distribution, complexities in family relationships, obligations to support loved ones, anticipation of physical or mental challenges, and reflections on one’s desired legacy to loved ones. Although there is much in the Catholic tradition and in the Scriptures themselves that speaks to these questions in an indirect way, this has not often been fully explored because this field may not, on its face, have an obvious connection to religious tradition. …
Fiduciaries With Conflicting Obligations,

Duke Law School
Fiduciaries With Conflicting Obligations, Steven L. Schwarcz
Faculty Scholarship
This Article examines the dilemma of a fiduciary acting for parties who, as among themselves, have conflicting commercial interests - an inquiry fundamentally different from that of the traditional study of conflicts between fiduciaries and their beneficiaries. Existing legal principles do not fully capture this dilemma because agency law focuses primarily on an agent’s duty to a given principal, not on conflicts among principals; trust law focuses primarily on gratuitous transfers; and commercial law generally addresses arm’s length, not fiduciary, relationships. The dilemma has become critically important, however, as defaults increase in the multitude of conflicting securities (e.g., classes of …
Implications Of Discovering Unreported Income, Improper Deductions, And Hidden Assets Upon A Taxpayer's Death,

Implications Of Discovering Unreported Income, Improper Deductions, And Hidden Assets Upon A Taxpayer's Death, Jay A. Soled
Georgia Law Review
Death commonly opens windows into taxpayers' lives and sheds light on items that were previously kept hidden or tightly guarded. This light sometimes reveals that the decedent failed to report income, took improper deductions, or held undisclosed assets-factors that have historically contributed to the size of the "tax gap," i.e., the difference between what taxpayers owe in taxes and what they actually pay. This Article explores the implications of these postmortem discoveries for executors, who must administer the decedent's estate; estate beneficiaries,who are recipients of the estate's assets; and tax practitioners,who are called upon to lend technical assistance. Beyond describing …

It Takes A Village: Considering The Other Interests At Stake When Extending Inheritance Rights To Posthumously Conceived Children, Morgan K. Wood
Georgia Law Review
The advent of assisted reproductive technologies has brought into existence a new class of children: those not conceived until after the death of one biological parent, or posthumously conceived children. Such a child may be born after a parent dies from a terminal illness or is killed in military action. Is the child legally recognized as the child of the deceased parent,and may the child inherit from that parent's estate? Not surprisingly, the law has been slow to evolve to deal with this relatively new concept. Only twelve states to date have enacted statutes specifically addressing posthumously conceived children, so …

Integrating Marital Property Into A Spouse’S Elective Share, Raymond C. O'Brien
Scholarly Articles
First, this Article begins with history, as this forms the basis of electiveshare law. It is necessary to begin with the historical basis of a spouse's right to support, and then proceed to examine how and why a spouse obtained a share of the property acquired during marriage. Second, because a spouse's rights at death were often very different from those that a spouse would obtain at divorce, it is necessary to explain the various judicial and statutory models adopted by the states to provide a modicum of protection to a surviving spouse at death. There are many models and …
