Debate Law Process
When someone passes away, their estate enters probate – a court–supervised process in which a
deceased individual's assets are paid towards outstanding debts and taxes, with the remainder being
distributed among their heirs. Though much is said about avoiding probate, understanding the
process and laws surrounding it is essential to ensuring you or your loved ones wishes are carried
out properly. Below, a probate lawyer from Knochel Law Offices in Bullhead City, AZ offers a basic
overview of probate law.
The Probate Process
When you die, the executor of your estate – named in your will – will file documents with the
probate court. If you happen to die without a will, the court will appoint an executor on your behalf.

Fee Simple Ownership Of Property
Property ownership comes with many rights and obligations. There are many different ways to
obtain property and convey it to others. The greatest interest someone can have in property, in terms
of degree of control over that property, is known as fee simple ownership. Fee simple ownership is
also the most common interest in land. It is important to understand the obligations associated with
property ownership before purchasing land or an estate. There are many rights associated with fee
simple ownership of property. The owner of has the right possess and control the property. The right
to quiet enjoyment also comes with the ownership of property, this means that the owner is entitled

However, there are a few ways owners can limit their ownership. The first way is to grant an
easement to someone to use part of the land for a specified purpose, for example, if an electric
company needs to install cables on someone's property the landowner can grant them an easement.
Granting an easement does not deprive the owner of their property, it simply allows a part of the
land to be used for a specific purpose. An easement that grants the right to do something is an
affirmative easement, in contrast a negative easement would require a landowner to refrain from
certain actions. For example, the owner could not increase the height of their dwelling as it would
block the light from entering the holder of the negative easements property. Easements are not
permanent, they may be terminated by a written agreement between the property owner and the
easement holder. Licenses are similar to easements in that they grant permission to use the property
in a specific way. The main difference between licenses and easements are that licenses are
revocable by the granter at any time and may be granted orally. Finally, there are covenants which
are promises made by the landowner with respect to the use of their land. Like easements, there are
positive and negative covenants. Positive covenants involve promising to do something, such as
paying homeowner association dues and negative covenants are promises to refrain from something,
such as housing a business on the

were trying to voice their opinions on the oppressive political and economic situations occurring at
this time in France in order to try and bring about a reform. These oppressive political and economic
situations that the Third Estate were trying to reform included things such as the king heavily taxing
only the Third Estate, who already did not even have the finances to survive let alone pay these high

If one fails to execute a living will, a person might opt not to establish a power of attorney. This also
leads to difficulty for one to control the kind of medical treatment to adapt. Whenever an estate hits

care means continues continuum of illness that includes addressing physical, social, and emotional,

The Pros And Cons Of Estate Planning
It is shocking to know that a majority of working American adults do not make estate planning a
priority. While most agree that estate planning is important, the misconception is that it is too
complicated or expensive. The majority do not know that they are indirectly involved in estate
planning by enrolling in a pension plan at work and choosing their beneficiary. This paper will
examine a simple form of estate planning through different employer benefits and qualified plans;
analyze why employer benefits should be considered in estate planning; determine the extent to
which an employee factors in estate planning when choosing life or death benefits from his or her

To help finance the Spanish American War, the War Revenue Act of 1898 was passed, and
subsequently abolished in 1902. The 1898 death tax was a form of estate tax, levied upon the value
of all personal property included in a decedent's gross estate (Luckey, 2003). A possession passing
to a surviving spouse was excluded from the tax, and a $10,000 specific exemption excluded small
estates. The tax rates were graduated from 0.74 percent to 15 percent, taking into consideration both
the size of the estate and the degree of affiliation of the decedent and the beneficiaries (Luckey,
2003). Due to the cost of World War I, the Revenue Act of 1916 restored an estate tax that has since
influenced the current estate tax code (Luckey, 2003). In 1797 it was 10 cents on inventories of the
effects of a deceased individual and 50 cents on the probate of wills and letters of administration. In
1862 the tax package included an inheritance tax in addition to the stamp tax of the probate of wills
and letter of administration. Federal death taxes in the United States between 1797 and 1915 appear
to have served as additional revenue sources adopted only during war times (Luckey,

The Unfair Political System During The French Revolution
Social reform during the French Revolution developed due to the unfair political system, brutality
perpetrated by the first estate, and the living conditions the lower class lived through, nevertheless,
the violence and genocide committed in order to create reform were immoral. Prior to the French
Revolution, people of influence abused the political system in order to allow them to live in luxury.
The government consisted of the first, second and third estate. The First Estate is composed of
kings, queens, and other royalty personnel which is around one percent of the population. The

During the time of the French revolution people of the first estate, second estate, and citizens who
work for the said estates, were generally murdered violently either by mob attacks or the Guillotine.
The citizens of the third estate essentially wanted revenge on these people. The guillotine originally
was used by the first estate to punish the lower class, for example; if a citizen from the third estate
did not pay their taxes or they somehow "disrespected" a leader of power they would be sent, as
punishment, to the guillotine and be put to death. Ironically, throughout the duration of the French
revolution, the citizens who were previously affected by this tyranny used the same tactics in order
to create social reform. The citizens of the first estate would brutally force people of power to death
or subdue them to violent torture. An example of this could be when a man named Flouon justly
needed to be punished for crimes he had committed however the mob of citizens brutally murder
him by hanging him on a lamppost and then putting "his head [upon] a pike"(II.22.223). In addition
to this, another example of the violence and brutality committed in order to create social reform is
The Storming of the Bastille. The Bastille was a prison in France, which essentially represented the

Dbq 3rd Estate French Revolution
During the 1700s, France's government was run by a three system estate system. The First Estate
was made up by the powerful clergy members, while the Second Estate was made with nobles.
Peasants and working men made the Third Estate, also the largest estate. In this large estate there
was a little class named the Bourgeoisie was a part of the Third Estate. Though the Bourgeoisie was
highly educated and always had stable professions, they were not set aside from the peasants. The
Third Estate was treated very poorly during the 1700s. Life was not suitable for the working class.
The mistreatment and inequality led to the French Revolution. Inequality during this time period
meant that things were not the same throughout each class. Unequal power between the estates,
abuse of the Third Estate, and the taxes and price raises were the three reasons that outweighed the

Before the revolution, king after king ruled over France with full power, and often did not take into
consideration the people's thoughts, beliefs, and opinions. Throughout the revolution, citizens from
the third estate began bringing attention to themselves and fighting for what they wanted, starting to
let their voices be heard. On July 14th, 1789, many suppressed french peasants intensely stormed
the Bastille, an important prison in France, and also captured, imprisoned, and killed french royalty
to show their anger against how they had been previously treated. This act forced King Louis VI to
pay attention to these threats from the lower class, and minimize power in the high society. Also,
this was one of the first key events that led to the french revolution's success, and the abolition of
the monarchy. Later, on October 4th in 1789, an important march took place, in which a great
amount of hungry, angry women marched towards Versailles demanding bread. The king and queen
were once again forced to recognize this event led by unhappy lower class parisians, and moved
from Versailles to Paris on October 6th. Both of these events led to the legitimization of the National
Assembly, which eventually caused the writing of the constitution and France becoming an official
republic in 1972. This matters because it marked the end of an unfair government where the third

Common Estate Case Study
When closing an estate, most states that use a formal probate process, allow for an informal closing
for common estates. These states simplified the probate process for estates that are straightforward;
not complicated or contested. Fortunately, Massachusetts is one of those states. In Massachusetts,
closing an estate using the simplified probate process involves the following tasks:
1) Complete a final inventory of assets.
2) Using the inventory of assets in the final accounting, complete the final accounting.
3) Under cover of an assent form, send copies of the inventory of assets and the final accounting to
each beneficiary.

3) Schedule C – Schedule C is the remaining balance of the estate. In common estates, the balance
should be zero. Simply put, the total in Schedule A must equal the total in Schedule B to produce a
zero balance in Schedule C. Furthermore, filling in these schedules with the appropriate values is a
collaborative effort. At times, throughout an estate administration, there are legal matters that the
attorney must handle. If these matters produce income or expenses for the estate, the attorney should
enter those values on the appropriate schedule. So, if the account doesn't balance in the initial
attempts, the attorney will most likely step in to help find any discrepancies if needed.
Once the final accounting balances, then the attorney will continue with the rest of the closing
process mentioned above. At this point, the only remaining task for the executor is to distribute the
rest of the property in the estate after signing the account form.
.
The Informal Closing of an Estate
Although an estate may close informally, it doesn't mean that a probate court won't request
information at a later date. Therefore, the executor should hold on to the original documents related
to the informal closing. In addition, the executor should retain supporting documents related to
entries in the final accounting such as receipts, bank statements, and brokerage statements.

The Bill introduces a very drastic change to the aforementioned provisions in Section 31 as it states
that despite the circumstances when the presumption of order of death is uncertain then neither of
the parties are to be presumed to have survived the other, ergo diminishing the current legal stance
relating to the general rule that the younger of the parties is presumed to have survived the elder.
However this change has the ability to give rights to beneficiaries in both wills rather than vesting in
the younger of the two deceased persons. For example if an unmarried couple die and leave wills to
each other whom failing their two children then by applying the proposed rule in the bill then both
children will receive from the will rather than the younger of the deceased.
The idea of the provisions set out in the Succession (Scotland) Act 1964 were to help benefit the
younger person who is presumed to have predeceased the elder so that the possible whom failing
clause can be met rather than the estate falling into partial intestacy. A case which illustrates this
outcome well is the Ross's Judicial Factor v Martin when both died and the common law rule was
applied it was determined that neither would have survived the other. This therefor caused both of

Most of your assets are to be distributed among children or family. Estate planning should be taken
care of before ones death rather than after. If nothing is setup then there is a probate court that will
distribute and properly execute to people or organizations, which is required by law. It is
recommended that your assets be set up as a nonprobate property. Meaning that you have distributed
your assets by transfer to a designed beneficiary, transfer to property ownership designation and
transfer by payable death designation. Having a joint tenant in a property transfers immediately to
that person upon ones death and for payable on death designation allows for the beneficiary to
access funds immediately with proof of a death certificate. A will also establishes what should be
done with any remaining assets after death. This is done through a personal representative that
identifies ones assets, collects any money due and after that is established they will pay off any
debts and after filing income tax distributes it with the permission of the court. Keep in mind that
spouses have legal rights to each other estates. This is known as community property laws that state

Reasons For The French Revolution
There were many causes that led to the French Revolution. Class, money, and philosophes were
three major factors that contributed to the French Revolution. The most important cause was money.
These factors resulted in Louis The Sixteenth and Marie Antoinette being executed, and the reign of
Napoleon to begin.
Class conflicts are a huge component of the French Revolution. The French Revolution began as a
result of the lack of the people's happiness over how they were told to live their lives. There were
three estates. The first estate being the clergy, the second estate being the nobility, and the third
estate being the bourgeoisie (commoners). The first and second estate consisted of very few people,
but was given most of the money, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
As the first and second estate voted that the bourgeoisie should pay all the taxes, the bourgeoisies
was outvoted and was forced to keep paying all of the taxes. The nobility and clergy were very
greedy, especially the clergy. Their morals were supposed to be more focused on the word of god,
instead of being focused on the material aspects of life on Earth. The clergy was supposed to be kind
and helpful, instead of selfish. Since the clergy was greedy, it lead France to be in even more debt
and have more conflicts. There were many privileges only given to the upper classes, which made it
unfair. At the beginning of the French Revolution, the bourgeoisie became very fed up with the
inequalities within the classes. To deal with the inequalities, the estates decided to gather in the
tennis courts and take an oath called the Tennis court Oath. The Tennis court Oath stated that they
would not leave until a new constitution was created. In the end, a new constitution was created and
a new form of government was put into place. The new government was called the national
assembly. The national assembly lasted from 1789–1799 but was then abolished as it upset many
people in France because the priorities of the National Assemblies decisions did not meet the
people's needs.
Money was also a major factor to the French Revolution. Once Louis The Sixteenth and Marie

The Importance Of Equality In The French Revolution
The French Revolution is a great example of how equality leads to peace and order; if the people of
France were equal during the time of the Revolution, there would not have been so much conflict
and reformation of government. I want to focus on equality because it is a topic that is dear to my
heart for many reasons and I firmly believe that the lack of equal rights is what fueled the French
Revolution and led to the violence and chaos that occurred during that time. Due to the Monarchy
that the French had at the time, citizens were under a feudal class system that kept their people from
being equal in government. This division between classes is just one of the things that aided the
violence that occurred during the French Revolution simply because people were not equal. No one
was represented in government and no power was distributed amongst the people; therefore, people

people to violence because the citizens of France felt this was the only way to make themselves

main contributors to the lack of equality in France and that is why it fueled the French Revolution.

What Were The Major Causes Of The French Revolution
What were the major causes of the French Revolution, and why did it take the course that it did?
The French Revolution of 1789 is an important milestone in the history of Europe. The revolution,
not only transformed the political, social and economic life of the people but also altered the entire
course of the worlds history. In the 18th century, France was a feudal society under the authority of
an out–and–out monarchy. The Bourbon monarchs lived in brilliance in the royal palace of
Versailles. The finances of France were in terrible conditions. The treasury was essentially empty
after the many wars that France was involved in. King Louis XVI was unable to guide France

Real Estate Law Research Paper
In term of Real Estate Law, the law recognizes two classifications of property which are real and
personal. Real property relates to land and those things that are more or less permanently attached to
the land, such as homes, office buildings, and trees. Personal property refers to all other things, such
as automobiles, furniture, computers, bank accounts, stocks, and bonds. Real property includes
rights to the airspace above the surface of the property, mineral rights to minerals located beneath
the surface, and water rights for water located on or beneath the surface of the land. A fixture is an

A fee simple determinable is ownership in real property limited to expire automatically on the
happening or non–happening of an event that is stated in the deed of conveyance or the will creating

more persons. An estate for life may be for either the life of the owner or the life of some other
person or persons. An estate at will is an estate with no fixed term created by the expressed or
implied agreement of the parties. An estate at will can automatically be terminated; however, under
modern law there may be some notice requirement before termination. Real estate legal assistants
are found in all types of law firms, whether they be large or small, urban or rural. In addition to

Absolute Value Of Being A Real Estate Agent
Absolute value can be used in a variety of ways in real life occupations like a real estate agent.
Absolute value is important because if a number does not work because it's negative, absolute value
is used to make the number positive. Out of many job possibilities, I chose a real estate agent
because it uses absolute value the most in the job with things like measuring distances and financial
transactions. A real estate agent, by definition, is a person who sells and rents out buildings and land
for clients This job is important because real estate agents are the reason something has an address
and people have ever rented, bought, or sold homes. The following essay will discuss how being a
real estate agent is important to everyday life and uses ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The first way is that they need to know measuring distances. Real estate agents need this for tasks
like placing for sale or open house signs in the perfect spot, taking pictures to make the house look
appealing to a buyer, measuring the rooms of home, and to know how far away the house is from
main places like a school. The last reason math is needed is for financial transactions. This task is a
necessity for selling, buying, or renting a house, or estimating costs of a home, renovations or
updates, and furniture.
To be a real estate agent, you have to have loads of requirements. One essential education
requirement is at least a high school diploma. So, no college is required but you probably have a
better chance at the job with college. Also, a real estate agent needs to have licenses for the state
they work in. Your state requires a specific number of hours of coursework or written or hands–on
work in order to get your license.
Real estate agents are needed and can be quite helpful when in the market for a new home or trying
to sell yours. In all, this occupation is very useful and without it, the property market would be a

French Revolution Research Paper
There are many questions about the French Revolution. One question would be, is did the French
Revolution benefit all members of the third estate? Before the French revolution, the third estate had
an unfair life. They were the only ones taxed and had little to no freedom. But what affected this the
most was the debt that France was in from helping the Americans. This led to the third estate to get
angry at the inequality of people and wanted change. The radical and forced change of the French
Revolution resulted in equality amongst all estates.
To begin, one way this is shown was how the third estate wanted. Which was equality of all men.
Some people during this time, like the nobles, did not like this idea. Do you believe that this was a

What group in the Revolution do you think made the most effect? I think it was the Jacobin. This is
because they were the radical ones. But there could be other groups that were radical. Who else do
you think were radical. Due to King Louis XIV's rule of total monarchy, "individual citizens without
money or power were unable to participate in politics for many years". This proves that the
Revolution was mostly composed of the third estate. This is because the first and second estate lived
in luxury compared to the third estate, so money was not a problem. When the revolution started,
one of the first thing that happened was the storming of the Bastille. This happened on July 14,
1789, where "the citizens of Paris stormed the Bastille Saint–Antoine in hopes to symbolize their
readiness to fight for their individual freedoms". They had also stated that "the ignorance, neglect,
or contempt of the rights of man are the sole cause of public calamities and of the corruption of
governments". This shows that while they try and fix the government, they are also trying not to do
something that would result in corruption. With democracy in the government, French citizens had
increased nationalism and an identity of self and place due to this big action. The third estate had
had many inequalities compared to others, but due to the enlightenment and change in mind, they

Summary: What Happens During The Probate Process
What is Probate?
It is common for people to draft wills prior to their death to ensure their loved one's are financially
secure following their passing. This is a kind and considerate gesture, but before people can have
access to whatever property and assets that have been willed to them, or what they feel should have
been willed to them, probate will need to be granted. In other words, it will need to be proven that
the decedent's will is valid.

Does Your Loved One's Estate Qualify for Probate?

in a more timely manner. This is dependent upon the size of the estate, and is typically available for
what courts consider "small estates."

Not all states have the same laws regarding wills. What may be the law in one state, is not always
the same in another, so when planning for the future, it is important that people understand how
legal matters are handled in Alabama. For example, a lot of people choose to write their wills. This
is an option, however, it will be considered invalid because Alabama law will only consider wills

The Will is one of many essential elements of a solid estate plan. However, the Will only covers
assets that comprise the probate estate. Other assets (non–probate assets) are not controlled by the

have been taken into consideration, please get in touch with an experienced Arizona estate planning

Introduction:
King Louis XVI required cash. His money related crisis constrained the French ruler to reluctantly
meet the Estates General with a specific end goal to require another land tax that would ideally
settle his financial hardships. It had been basically 175 years since a last meeting of this deliberative
body. That included delegates of almost three Estates: the First involved the ministry, the Second
contained the nobility and also the Third involved the lower and middle classes. The Estates started
their meeting at the Versailles on 5th of May, 1789 and immediately went into a force battle. The

Political, monetary, and social conditions in France added to the discontent felt by numerous French
individuals particularly those of the third estate. The thoughts of the scholarly people of the
Enlightenment conveyed new perspectives to government and society. The American Revolution
additionally affected the happening to the French Revolution. The Philosophers planted the seeds
for the French Revolution. Their objectives were to uncover and annihilate the disparities of the old
administration (old order). The political discontent of France was one of the reasons for the
Revolution. In the seventeenth and eighteenth hundreds of years, France was ruled by an outright
government. The ruler had all the political forces. Any individual who reprimanded the
administration could be captured and put in jail without trial. Louis XVI was lord at the season of
the French Revolution. He was keener on chasing than overseeing France. He and his Austrian ruler,
Marie Antoinette, carried on with an extreme life at the Palace of Versailles. They didn 't generally
think about the condition of their nation.
The initial two estates cooperated to outvote the huge third estate to keep them from turning into a

death. Section 2035(a) invoked to cause inclusion in the gross estate.
Based on section 2035(a), " If (1) the decedent made a transfer (by trust or otherwise) of an interest
in any property, or relinquished a power with respect to any property, during the 3–year period
ending on the date of the decedent's death, and (2) the value of such property would have been

Advancement opportunities for agents often take the form of higher commission rates and more and
larger sales, both of which increase earnings. This occurs as agents gain expertise and contacts, and
become more efficient in closing a greater number of transactions. Experienced agents can also
advance in many large firms to managerial positions. And people who have received their broker's
licenses can open their own offices.
Others with experience and training in estimating property value may become real estate appraisers,
and people familiar with operating and maintaining rental properties may become property
managers. Also, a gents, brokers, and appraisers who gain general experience in real estate and a
thorough knowledge of business conditions and property values in their localities, may enter

Massachusetts Estate Abatement
When an executor realizes the estate lacks the assets to meet estate obligations, including bequests,
an abatement process occurs. The abatement process allows for the distribution of limited assets
which results in reducing or eliminating bequests to beneficiaries. Basically, abatement involuntarily
reduces or eliminates a beneficiary's share of an estate to allow for payment of some obligations.
Initially, to determine the need for abatement, the executor will build an administration plan as
described in the article The Administration Plan: A necessity for the Executor. If the plan reveals
that the estate lacks the assets to meet estate obligations, then abatement will result. Additionally, if
the will excludes abatement instructions, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Therefore, the common executor should defer to an attorney to handle the abatement process.
Final Facts
In full disclosure, I am not an attorney. Also, in my estate administration, abatement was never a
concern. So, this article is a simple overview of what the abatement process entails. The abatement
process is much more complicated than this article reveals. As a result, any common executor facing
abatement should defer the matter to an attorney skilled in probate law.
Furthermore, since some articles in this blog indicated that property left in a will may be sold to
cover expenses, this article reveals the process of how that happens. The executor doesn't get to pick
which beneficiary loses a bequest. The decedent or probate court makes that decision through the
will or legal statute.
Also, for the most part, the abatement process protects the executor from legal action or contests
from beneficiaries concerning abatement. If a beneficiary or creditor doesn't agree with abatement
and files a lawsuit, they will certainly lose. The same happens if a beneficiary contests the will, that
beneficiary will lose. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule and that applies to estate law as
well. However, unless there are extraordinary circumstances, the abatement process will protect

Fee Simple Research Paper
Fee simple defeasible is another way of saying fee simple qualified. Fee simple qualified is an estate
for which owner has fee simple title subject to a condition. If the condition is not met, then the title
passes back to the owner. It is a conditional estate based on that condition. A condition subsequent is
a condition that must occur after the transaction and a condition precedent is a condition that must
occur prior to the transaction. The classic example is that of a specific use being required of a
property. A man gave his property to the city to use as a library. Years later the city stopped using the
property as a library and the man's heirs demanded the property back. The man's family regained
title because the title held by the city was a fee simple defeasible / qualified title and the condition
was that the property be used as a library. Just as a contrast, a fee simple absolute, is a transfer with
no conditions. Synonyms: fee simple qualified Antonyms: fee simple absolute Related Words:

eliminate a potential challenge of the will, it helps provide a clearer picture on the testator's

Accurate Bookkeeping
In a formal probate process, accurate bookkeeping is crucial. As an executor, you must provide a
final accounting of the estate and have it approved by all the beneficiaries in order to close the
estate. Since, in some states, the formal probate process can take a year or more to close an estate,
sloppy bookkeeping can hold up the final accounting stage if a discrepancy occurs. Therefore, to
avoid holdups, you must develop a reliable bookkeeping system.
How to Set Up an Accurate Bookkeeping System
Develop a bookkeeping system that makes sense to you and use technology, if possible. There are
no rules in how to set up a bookkeeping system but make sure the bookkeeping system you create
has the following components:
Track the transactions ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
However, keep an eye out for transactions that are combined. Here are a couple common
transactions that could trip up any bookkeeping system:
A sale of a home. Usually, the proceeds you receive from a sale of a home has the expenses of the
sale deducted from the check. It's perfectly normal to deposit that check into the estate account
without recording the expenses. So, the income side of the transaction will be correct, but you will
be missing expenses that will cause a discrepancy in the final accounting. Make sure you enter the
expenses that were deducted from the proceeds of the sale into the manual record and the automated
record.
Completing a deposit of multiple checks on one deposit slip. When you deposit multiple checks on
one deposit slip you will receive a receipt for the total of all those checks. In the final accounting,
each type of income is reported separately. So, if you deposit multiple checks consisting of a rent
check, dividend check, and a check you received from closing an account, that's three separate
categories of income in the final accounting. You must record each check separately either in your
journal or the manual record so you will have a reference as to what income type you received for
each check. This will avoid confusion in the final

Does The Language Contained Be A Qualified Domestic Trust?
I. QUESTION PRESENTED
Does the language contained in Form M allow the trust it creates to qualify under I.R.C. § 2056A as
a qualified domestic trust treatment?
II. SHORT ANSWER
Form M does not provide all of the required language needed to allow a trust to qualify for domestic
trust treatment. It is missing two important portions of language needed to allow it to fulfill the
qualification requirements contained in section 2056A and its accompanying regulations. First, it
does not designate that the laws of a particular state will govern administration or be the location of
record keeping. Secondly, the terms of the trust do not otherwise meet the requirements for the
marital deduction under section 2056. Simple changes can be made to the ... Show more content on
Helpwriting.net ...
I.R.C. § 2056(d)(1). Congress has provided an exception to this general rule in the form of a
qualified domestic trust (QDOT), which allows the property to qualify for the marital deduction if
the trust meets certain requirements. I.R.C. § 2056(d)(2)(A). For a trust to qualify for QDOT status
and the marital deduction, it must meet the seven requirements contained in the tax code and
accompanying treasury regulations. I will separately discuss each requirement below and whether
the currently language of Form M effectively fulfills that requirement.
B. Designation of U.S State for Administration and Record Keeping
The instrument creating the trust must designate that the laws of a U.S. state or the District of
Columbia will govern the administration of the trust and that the trust must be maintained under this
jurisdiction's laws. The trust records, or copies of these records, must be kept in the same state
which is designated for the administration of the trust. Treas. Reg. § 20.2056A–2(a). The language
of Form M does not specify or mention any state for the location for administration of the trust or as
a location for record keeping. To qualify under this requirement, the document should include the
following language or something similar: "This trust shall at all times be governed, construed and
administered in accordance with the laws of the [Commonwealth of Virginia or other State]."
C. Trust Must Qualify as "Ordinary Trust"
The instrument must create a trust

Estate Planning Attorney Essay
An estate planning attorney is a lawyer who specializes in helping clients get their affairs in order.
This may be driven by a mental disability or to simplify the client's affairs in case they die. Estate

mitigate estate taxes, create living trusts and protect the client's assets from creditors after their
death. While it costs money to hire an estate planning attorney, these lawyers can help save
thousands or millions of dollars in the future.

A proactive approach to estate planning is key to saving you and your family money over the long
run. Estate plans are designed to protect assets in the event that something happens to you. From
creating a living trust to designating a guardian, an estate plan is the best way to protect your family.
With an estate plan, you can:
Lower Your Estate Taxes
One of the most obvious reasons to create an estate plan is to lower the taxes incurred by your
beneficiaries. A lawyer can help you use techniques like living trusts to avoid or reduce estate taxes.
As a result, your beneficiaries can inherit more of your estate without sending it in as taxes.
Skip the Costs of Probate Court
In some cases, your estate plan may help your property to skip the probate process entirely.
Normally, your entire property would go through probate court for months as it is distributed
between your beneficiaries. In addition to taking time, this process can be extremely expensive.
There are ways to avoid the costs of probate court, but you would have to make a good estate plan
to do so.

The first way is to grant an easement to someone to use part of the land for a specified purpose, for example, if an electric company needs to install cables on someone's property the landowner can grant them an easement. Granting an easement does not deprive the owner of their property, it simply allows a part of the land to be used for a specific purpose. An easement that grants the right to do something is an affirmative easement, in contrast a negative easement would require a landowner to refrain from certain actions. For example, the owner could not increase the height of their dwelling as it would block the light from entering the holder of the negative easements property. Easements are not permanent, they may be terminated by a written agreement between the property owner and the easement holder. Licenses are similar to easements in that they grant permission to use the property in a specific way. The main difference between licenses and easements are that licenses are revocable by the granter at any time and may be granted orally. Finally, there are covenants which are promises made by the landowner with respect to the use of their land. Like easements, there are positive and negative covenants. Positive covenants involve promising to do something, such as paying homeowner association dues and negative covenants are promises to refrain from something, such as housing a business on the ...

To help finance the Spanish American War, the War Revenue Act of 1898 was passed, and subsequently abolished in 1902. The 1898 death tax was a form of estate tax, levied upon the value of all personal property included in a decedent's gross estate (Luckey, 2003). A possession passing to a surviving spouse was excluded from the tax, and a $10,000 specific exemption excluded small estates. The tax rates were graduated from 0.74 percent to 15 percent, taking into consideration both the size of the estate and the degree of affiliation of the decedent and the beneficiaries (Luckey, 2003). Due to the cost of World War I, the Revenue Act of 1916 restored an estate tax that has since influenced the current estate tax code (Luckey, 2003). In 1797 it was 10 cents on inventories of the effects of a deceased individual and 50 cents on the probate of wills and letters of administration. In 1862 the tax package included an inheritance tax in addition to the stamp tax of the probate of wills and letter of administration.

The Unfair Political System During The French Revolution Social reform during the French Revolution developed due to the unfair political system, brutality perpetrated by the first estate, and the living conditions the lower class lived through, nevertheless, the violence and genocide committed in order to create reform were immoral. Prior to the French Revolution, people of influence abused the political system in order to allow them to live in luxury. The government consisted of the first, second and third estate.

The Second Estate consists of nobles and clergy, which is equivalent to one percent of the population. Lastly, is the Third Estate which ranged anywhere from the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... During the time of the French revolution people of the first estate, second estate, and citizens who work for the said estates, were generally murdered violently either by mob attacks or the Guillotine. The citizens of the third estate essentially wanted revenge on these people. The guillotine originally was used by the first estate to punish the lower class, for example; if a citizen from the third estate did not pay their taxes or they somehow "disrespected" a leader of power they would be sent, as punishment, to the guillotine and be put to death. Ironically, throughout the duration of the French revolution, the citizens who were previously affected by this tyranny used the same tactics in order to create social reform. The citizens of the first estate would brutally force people of power to death or subdue them to violent torture. An example of this could be when a man named Flouon justly needed to be punished for crimes he had committed however the mob of citizens brutally murder him by hanging him on a lamppost and then putting "his head [upon] a pike"(II.22.223). In addition to this, another example of the violence and brutality committed in order to create social reform is The Storming of the Bastille. The Bastille was a prison in France, which essentially represented the authority of the upper estates, many low–class citizens were imprisoned there for unjust reasons. the time of the French revolution came around the citizen liberating the prison not only freed prisoners, they killed many of the authority residing there unjustly and ...

In this large estate there was a little class named the Bourgeoisie was a part of the Third Estate. Though the Bourgeoisie was highly educated and always had stable professions, they were not set aside from the peasants. The Third Estate was treated very poorly during the 1700s. Life was not suitable for the working class. The mistreatment and inequality led to the French Revolution. Inequality during this time period meant that things were not the same throughout each class. Unequal power between the estates, abuse of the Third Estate, and the taxes and price raises were the three reasons that outweighed the many political, social, and economic factors that led to the French Revolution. ...

Before the revolution, king after king ruled over France with full power, and often did not take into consideration the people's thoughts, beliefs, and opinions. Throughout the revolution, citizens from the third estate began bringing attention to themselves and fighting for what they wanted, starting to let their voices be heard. On July 14th, 1789, many suppressed french peasants intensely stormed the Bastille, an important prison in France, and also captured, imprisoned, and killed french royalty to show their anger against how they had been previously treated. This act forced King Louis VI to pay attention to these threats from the lower class, and minimize power in the high society. Also, this was one of the first key events that led to the french revolution's success, and the abolition of the monarchy. Later, on October 4th in 1789, an important march took place, in which a great amount of hungry, angry women marched towards Versailles demanding bread. The king and queen were once again forced to recognize this event led by unhappy lower class parisians, and moved from Versailles to Paris on October 6th. Both of these events led to the legitimization of the National Assembly, which eventually caused the writing of the constitution and France becoming an official republic in 1972.

Simply put, the total in Schedule A must equal the total in Schedule B to produce a zero balance in Schedule C. Furthermore, filling in these schedules with the appropriate values is a collaborative effort. At times, throughout an estate administration, there are legal matters that the attorney must handle. If these matters produce income or expenses for the estate, the attorney should enter those values on the appropriate schedule. So, if the account doesn't balance in the initial attempts, the attorney will most likely step in to help find any discrepancies if needed. Once the final accounting balances, then the attorney will continue with the rest of the closing process mentioned above. At this point, the only remaining task for the executor is to distribute the rest of the property in the estate after signing the account form. . The Informal Closing of an Estate Although an estate may close informally, it doesn't mean that a probate court won't request information at a later date. Therefore, the executor should hold on to the original documents related to the informal closing. In addition, the executor should retain supporting documents related to entries in the final accounting such as receipts, bank statements, and brokerage statements.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Bill introduces a very drastic change to the aforementioned provisions in Section 31 as it states that despite the circumstances when the presumption of order of death is uncertain then neither of the parties are to be presumed to have survived the other, ergo diminishing the current legal stance relating to the general rule that the younger of the parties is presumed to have survived the elder. However this change has the ability to give rights to beneficiaries in both wills rather than vesting in the younger of the two deceased persons. For example if an unmarried couple die and leave wills to each other whom failing their two children then by applying the proposed rule in the bill then both children will receive from the will rather than the younger of the deceased. The idea of the provisions set out in the Succession (Scotland) Act 1964 were to help benefit the younger person who is presumed to have predeceased the elder so that the possible whom failing clause can be met rather than the estate falling into partial intestacy. A case which illustrates this outcome well is the Ross's Judicial Factor v Martin when both died and the common law rule was applied it was determined that neither would have survived the other.

Most of your assets are to be distributed among children or family. Estate planning should be taken care of before ones death rather than after. If nothing is setup then there is a probate court that will distribute and properly execute to people or organizations, which is required by law. It is recommended that your assets be set up as a nonprobate property. Meaning that you have distributed your assets by transfer to a designed beneficiary, transfer to property ownership designation and transfer by payable death designation. Having a joint tenant in a property transfers immediately to that person upon ones death and for payable on death designation allows for the beneficiary to access funds immediately with proof of a death certificate. A will also establishes what should be done with any remaining assets after death. This is done through a personal representative that identifies ones assets, collects any money due and after that is established they will pay off any debts and after filing income tax distributes it with the permission of the court.

The most important cause was money. These factors resulted in Louis The Sixteenth and Marie Antoinette being executed, and the reign of Napoleon to begin. Class conflicts are a huge component of the French Revolution. The French Revolution began as a result of the lack of the people's happiness over how they were told to live their lives. There were three estates. The first estate being the clergy, the second estate being the nobility, and the third estate being the bourgeoisie (commoners).

As the first and second estate voted that the bourgeoisie should pay all the taxes, the bourgeoisies was outvoted and was forced to keep paying all of the taxes. The nobility and clergy were very greedy, especially the clergy. Their morals were supposed to be more focused on the word of god, instead of being focused on the material aspects of life on Earth. The clergy was supposed to be kind and helpful, instead of selfish. Since the clergy was greedy, it lead France to be in even more debt and have more conflicts. There were many privileges only given to the upper classes, which made it unfair. At the beginning of the French Revolution, the bourgeoisie became very fed up with the inequalities within the classes. To deal with the inequalities, the estates decided to gather in the tennis courts and take an oath called the Tennis court Oath. The Tennis court Oath stated that they would not leave until a new constitution was created. In the end, a new constitution was created and a new form of government was put into place. The new government was called the national assembly. The national assembly lasted from 1789–1799 but was then abolished as it upset many people in France because the priorities of the National Assemblies decisions did not meet the people's needs. Money was also a major factor to the French Revolution. Once Louis The Sixteenth and Marie Antoinette became absolute monarchs in 1774, they lavishly spent money. The couple ...

  • 20. The Importance Of Equality In The French Revolution The French Revolution is a great example of how equality leads to peace and order; if the people of France were equal during the time of the Revolution, there would not have been so much conflict and reformation of government. I want to focus on equality because it is a topic that is dear to my heart for many reasons and I firmly believe that the lack of equal rights is what fueled the French Revolution and led to the violence and chaos that occurred during that time. Due to the Monarchy that the French had at the time, citizens were under a feudal class system that kept their people from being equal in government. This division between classes is just one of the things that aided the violence that occurred during the French Revolution simply because people were not equal. No one was represented in government and no power was distributed amongst the people; therefore, people felt they were walked on and that their life was not as valuable. The imbalance of power drove people to violence because the citizens of France felt this was the only way to make themselves heard. This is just one example of how inequality led to the destruction of the society in France during the French Revolution. The Feudal Class System and active and passive citizenship were the main contributors to the lack of equality in France and that is why it fueled the French Revolution.

Before the French revolution, the third estate had an unfair life. They were the only ones taxed and had little to no freedom. But what affected this the most was the debt that France was in from helping the Americans. This led to the third estate to get angry at the inequality of people and wanted change.

What group in the Revolution do you think made the most effect? I think it was the Jacobin. This is because they were the radical ones. But there could be other groups that were radical. Who else do you think were radical. Due to King Louis XIV's rule of total monarchy, "individual citizens without money or power were unable to participate in politics for many years". This proves that the Revolution was mostly composed of the third estate. This is because the first and second estate lived in luxury compared to the third estate, so money was not a problem. When the revolution started, one of the first thing that happened was the storming of the Bastille. This happened on July 14, 1789, where "the citizens of Paris stormed the Bastille Saint–Antoine in hopes to symbolize their readiness to fight for their individual freedoms". They had also stated that "the ignorance, neglect, or contempt of the rights of man are the sole cause of public calamities and of the corruption of governments". This shows that while they try and fix the government, they are also trying not to do something that would result in corruption.

And when selling or establishing a price for real estate, people seek out real estate agents to do the dirty work.

  • 39. Massachusetts Estate Abatement When an executor realizes the estate lacks the assets to meet estate obligations, including bequests, an abatement process occurs. The abatement process allows for the distribution of limited assets which results in reducing or eliminating bequests to beneficiaries. Basically, abatement involuntarily reduces or eliminates a beneficiary's share of an estate to allow for payment of some obligations. Initially, to determine the need for abatement, the executor will build an administration plan as described in the article The Administration Plan: A necessity for the Executor. If the plan reveals that the estate lacks the assets to meet estate obligations, then abatement will result. Additionally, if the will excludes abatement instructions, ...

Also, in my estate administration, abatement was never a concern. So, this article is a simple overview of what the abatement process entails. The abatement process is much more complicated than this article reveals. As a result, any common executor facing abatement should defer the matter to an attorney skilled in probate law. Furthermore, since some articles in this blog indicated that property left in a will may be sold to cover expenses, this article reveals the process of how that happens. The executor doesn't get to pick which beneficiary loses a bequest. The decedent or probate court makes that decision through the will or legal statute. Also, for the most part, the abatement process protects the executor from legal action or contests from beneficiaries concerning abatement. If a beneficiary or creditor doesn't agree with abatement and files a lawsuit, they will certainly lose. The same happens if a beneficiary contests the will, that beneficiary will lose. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule and that applies to estate law as well. However, unless there are extraordinary circumstances, the abatement process will protect ...

  • 41. Fee Simple Research Paper Fee simple defeasible is another way of saying fee simple qualified. Fee simple qualified is an estate for which owner has fee simple title subject to a condition. If the condition is not met, then the title passes back to the owner. It is a conditional estate based on that condition. A condition subsequent is a condition that must occur after the transaction and a condition precedent is a condition that must occur prior to the transaction. The classic example is that of a specific use being required of a property. A man gave his property to the city to use as a library. Years later the city stopped using the property as a library and the man's heirs demanded the property back. The man's family regained title because the title held by the city was a fee simple defeasible / qualified title and the condition was that the property be used as a library.
