Topic: Resulting trust


  
  Resulting trust - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A resulting trust is a type of implied trust created through implication of law where the actions of the parties involved and the nature of the transaction implies an intention to create a trust.
In many ways a resulting trust is similar to an express trust as there must be intent.
A resulting trust usually occurs where a person omits to divest his beneficial interest in the trust property.

 Trust (law) USA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An implied trust (also called a resulting trust) is created where some of the legal requirements for an express trust are not met, but an intention on behalf of the parties to create a trust can be presumed to exist.
A resulting trust may be deemed to be present where a trust instrument is not properly drafted and a portion of the equitable title has not been provided for.
In order to qualify as a charitable trust, the trust must have as its object certain purposes such as alleviating poverty, providing education, carrying out some religious purpose, etc. The permissible objects are generally set out in legislation, but objects not explicitly set out may also be an object of a charitable trust, by analogy.

 Constructive and Resulting Trusts
Constructive trusts are the second kind of trusts which come about by the effect of the law, instead of by express declaration of a settlor (the latter being called express trusts).
Constructive trusts are also said to be "remedial" in that they are not property tools (as express trusts are) but are creations of the courts, relying on their jurisdiction under equity, to correct some unequitable wrong; thus, "remedial." Constructive trusts are often described as corrective or even punitive.
Where express trusts fail because of mistake or fraud, the vehicle of a constructive trust is often used to ensure the proper return of the trust property to the settlor.

Resulting trusts are divided mainly into two categories: (1) those arising on a failure of an express trust and (2) those arising as the result of a conveyance of property to one person on a consideration from another, commonly referred to as a purchase-money resulting trust.
A resulting trust arises at the time title passes; the basic principle is the investment of one's funds, which were not intended as a gift, in the purchase of the property and the taking of title to the property in another.
To constitute a resulting trust, there must be a payment by the complainant or an absolute obligation to pay, incurred by him or her as a part of the original purchase transaction, at or before the time of the conveyance.

 OSCN Found Document:SCOTT v. NELSON
A resulting trust is one where the legal estate in property is conveyed or transferred, but the intent appears or is inferred from the terms of the disposition or from accompanying facts and circumstances that the beneficial interest is not to be enjoyed with the legal title.
In such case, the trust is implied or results in favor of the person for whom the equitable interest is assumed to have been intended and whom equity deems to be the real owner.
A resulting trust arises as an equitable doctrine where the legal estate is transferred and no trust or use is expressly declared, nor any circumstance, or evidence of intent, appears to direct the trust or use, which then results or comes back to the original grantor.

 Trusts
Trust is an entity created to hold assets for the benefit of certain persons or entities, with a trustee managing the trust (and often holding title on behalf of the trust).
During the life of the trust, profits and, sometimes, a portion of the principal (called "corpus") may be distributed to the beneficiaries, and at some time in the future (such as the death of the last trustor or settlor) the remaining assets will be distributed to beneficiaries.
For example, a trust under which income may be accumulated until a beneficiary is 21 years old, and thereafter must be distributed currently, is a simple trust for taxable years beginning after the beneficiary reaches the age of 21 years in which no other amounts are distributed.

 WYOM Found Document:SERAN v. DAVIS
Resulting trusts, therefore, are those which arise where the legal estate in property is disposed of, conveyed, or transferred, but the intent appears or is inferred from the terms of the disposition, or from the accompanying facts and circumstances, that the beneficial interest is not to go or be enjoyed with the legal title.
Where the trusts in an instrument are not declared, or are only partially declared, a resulting trust arises in favor of the donor or his heirs or next of kin as the case may be.
When the trust results by operation of law, as for instance when there is a devise or bequest "upon trust" and no trust is declared, or upon certain trusts that are too vague to be executed, a trust results to the heirs at law or personal representatives.

 John T. Blanchard, P.C. -- Involuntary Trusts And Liens
A "constructive trust" is a judicially imposed remedy for a tortfeasor's exercise of control over another's property; that is, it is imposed notwithstanding the absence of an intent to create a trust relationship.
As comforting as the linguistic parallels between voluntary and involuntary trusts may seem initially, those same parallels are misleading because a "constructive trust" is not a trust at all; instead, it is only an equitable remedy.
Because in theory a resulting trust does enforce a judicially inferred intent (often in the face of vigorous denials of such inferred intent by the trustee), a resulting trust is closer to being a true trust.

 Resulting Trust Doctrine (Gordon Goldberg, 29 Jul 1999)
For the distinction in Jowitt's Dictionary of English Law (2nd edn, London 1977, by Burke) of constructive from implied trusts, by virtue of the latter's "reference to the presumable intention of the parties" and without mentioning resulting trusts, is understandable.
Resulting trusts are but a species of implied trusts and as such themselves make "reference to the presumable intention of the parties".
269 at p.294 between a "presumed resulting trust" and an "automatic resulting trust", on the basis that the latter "does not depend on any intentions or presumptions, but is the automatic consequence of [the grantor's] failure to dispose of what is vested in him", does not exist.

The resulting trust has received little attention in recent years and this may be because, until relatively recently, the law relating to resulting trusts was thought to be settled and uncontroversial.
Most of the current academic writing about resulting trusts is found in the established textbooks on equity and trusts, but these tend to provide little more than catalogues of the situations in which resulting trusts arise.
