Description and Table of Contents
Description
This text contains a wide range of relevant, interesting case law, statutory material, academic extracts, and official proposals for law reform. In a subject that is heavily case based, the contents of "Todd & Watt's Cases and Materials on Equity and Trusts" provide a complete source of reference to students. The book is set out in a logical structure which corresponds to the typical undergraduate course in equity and trusts, with materials linked by engaging commentary and stimulating questions together with suggestions for further study. The fifth edition has been fully revised and updated to include the Charities Bill 2004, the Civil Partnerships Bill 2004, Inland Revenue proposals for the reform of trusts taxation (2004), and Law Commission proposals on the forfeiture rule (2003) and the treatment of capital and income trusts (2004). Also new to this edition are thirty recent cases on subjects as diverse as mortgage fraud, money laundering, tax avoidance, enforcement of copyright in a foreign jurisdiction, defrauding trade creditors, and disputes over domestic property.
