Plan of Administration
Estate of Paul Theodor Brugger
This plan sets out the steps that Public Trust will take to administer Paul Theodor Brugger 's estate. It may be helpful for you to read this along with the information for beneficiaries sheet, which is enclosed.
The Will
I enclose a copy of the Will, which can be summarised as follows:
Grant of Administration
To confirm Public Trust 's appointment as executor and trustee in the Will, we must go through the legal process of seeking a Grant of Probate from the High Court. This gives Public Trust the authority to deal with estate assets and is usually available within four to six weeks of the filing of the application to the High Court.
Assets and liabilities
A schedule of the assets and liabilities that Public Trust will deal with during the administration of the estate is included at the end of this plan.
Dealing with the assets
To follow are the actions we will be taking to deal with the identified assets:
Bank accounts
The ASB Bank Limited accounts will be closed and the proceeds will be used to pay any debts owing, as well as the preliminary estate administration expenses.
Property
To enable Public Trust to complete all the necessary legal tasks in regards to the property, the first necessary step is to change the ownership on the title to Public Trust as estate administrator. As discussed, the property at 55 Rutland Road, Mount Wellington, Auckland will be sold. We 'll complete this transfer when we 've
While grantor trusts are commonly created as part of an estate plan, estate planners may inadvertently be creating income tax issues that trustees and tax preparers must deal with during the administration. When the grantor of a grantor trust dies, or the grantor trust status terminates during the life of the grantor, for the most part the tax consequences are well established. What is unclear is what happens if the grantor trust had an outstanding liability to the grantor at the death of the grantor. This paper addresses the issue and how it may be treated. Part I of this paper will briefly address the history of
eventual disposition of the asset (asset group). That assessment shall be based on the carrying amount
"Probate1 works with individuals to ensure the process runs smoothly. Our firm works to get the heirs the maximum amount allowed by law, while fulfilling any obligations. The probate lawyer may be called in at any time, to create the will, establish a trust or develop documents for a person's medical power of attorney, among other things. In addition, the lawyer can handle the filing of the estate with the court," Jackson goes on to say.
If an asset is lost or stolen, a thorough search must be completed and if the asset is not found the agency must remove it from the books but keep records of the removal.
Paul Dutton has asked us to alter his estate plan, which previous included an inter vivos trust created in 2013 and a previously executed Will leaving all of his property to his spouse, Erika Dutton. He has asked that we update his current Will to create a two trust plan, consisting of a marital trust and family trust. I have conformed the terms of his new will to this request but now would like to direct your attention to some significant flaws in the language of the original will, which have not been changed, and suggest some solutions to these flaws.
Which of the following taxpayers use a Schedule K and K-1 to pass through income, loss, and credit amounts to the owners or beneficiaries?
Do either the Living Wills or Durable Power of Attorney apply in this case? Explain.
The public trustee will however need the court order in the case of a missing person. They will be required to make an application asking the court to declare the individual missing after which the court will grant him or her power to take over the assets.
Sonja has a mentally disabled son. She wants to make certain that her son will have a continuous income after her death. In this particular situation I would say to have a Trust as well as a Will. Having a Will can specifically state exactly what the decease last wishes were and by having a Trust with someone assigned to the Trust or a guardian on the Will, will make everything crystal clear with no hassles on what the last demands were. Another way is to use the fixed amount or fixed period option which
It includes also the preparation of procedures needed to communicate these plans to all concerned.
It is in looking back that we can see the future; SANKOFA. This African symbol derived from the Akan Tribe in Ghana best describes my Administrative Philosophy. Translated, the word and the symbol mean, “it is not taboo to fetch what is at risk of being left behind.” (Carter G. Center for Education). Therefore, It is upon this strong belief that I stand unwavering in experiences, leadership, management style and values. Specifically, the genesis of my statement of administrative philosophy is derived from my gratitude to my elders and ancestors that paved the way for access to equal education. The impact of their courage and leadership has created a legacy that lives forever. At the center of my philosophy is the belief that it is my altruistic calling as well as duty to be a catalyst for student success. Academia is where I not only make a living but “Live my making!” Simply put, I am called to this profession and have a duty to serve unselfishly. To that end, as a theoretical underpinning of my practices, my preferred leadership style is servant and transformational leadership. Student Affairs is the department where my philosophy and leadership capacity can make the greatest impact.
The following is a case study of Blackwell v Blackwell, that is connected to the principle of Secret Trusts and particularly Half Secret Trusts. In order for the principle to be understood, it is significant to expatiate on what secret trusts are and the several laws revolving around them. In general terms, a secret trust arises where a testator, A, tells B that he is leaving property to B on his death, and that he wishes B to hold it on trust for C, even though no trust for C has been set out in any formal will executed by A. If B agrees, when the property passes to B on A's death, the court will enforce the secret trust despite its informality and require B to hold the property for C. In secret trusts, two different types are recognised by the courts, one where the trustee and the terms of the trust are not mentioned in the will, this is a fully secret trust while a half secret trust is subject to a trust obligation which is apparent on the face of the Will, but the terms of the trust and the identity of the beneficiary are not disclosed. The trustee is not in position to deny the trust and can not fraudulently take the property because he is a trustee for someone. Equity will not allow him take the property beneficially. The major difference between both is the extent in which disclosure is made as to the recipient of the gift intends to take the property as a trustee rather than for himself. Secret Trusts can also arise where there is no will, it may be in a case of
A harsh decision would been seen in the case of Re Fry (1946), as the donor in this case had completed necessary forms and returned them. He also applied for the necessary consent which required by the Defence Regulation (Amendments No.2) SI 1939/1620, but the consent was not given before his untimely demise. Romer J. did not upheld the trust because the donor has not done everything that is necessary for the transfer of the title. As Romer J. stated that if the donor had been asked for further details, he is not compelled to proceed with the transfer, he have the choice to refuse as he obtain more details about the transfer of share.The law had been very clear with regards to imperfect gifts or incompletely constituted trust, as some judges even decided harshly to comply with the maxim and general rule. However there are judges that came out with different rule to curb such harsh decision and strict principle, this is known as ‘the every effort rule’. The ‘every effort rule’ which was established in the case of Re Rose [1952] explained by Rimer L.J in Zeital v Kaye [2010] that “once a donor has done all in his own power to transfer the shares, he will be regarded as holding the legal title to them upon trust for the donee, who will thereupon become their beneficial owner”. This rule will not render the gift or trust failed
Assets in the financial statement are always required and show useful information to investors and understand where the information comes from. For instance, accounts receivable net which the organization does not expect to collect all of the money it is due from all patients and insurers, (Finkler, S.A., Ward, D.M. & Calabrese, I.D., 2013). The bad debts become about of the money due. Furthermore, accounts receivables, net represents gross charges less an allowance for poor debts, and many contractual allowances established with those third party payers. Typically, an example of a bad debt would show charges of a large sum of money delivered from a hospital. Then, the contractual allowances from
