Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leading American Cases and Notes Upon the Law of Wills: Embracing Testamentary Capacity, Undue Influence, the Admission of Oral Testimony in Aid of the Construction of Wills, the Execution of Wills, &C We have no occasion further to discuss the value of this kind of law-books. We believe that our own attempt to supply a convenient supplement of American cases, to aid in presenting the law of particular topics, arranged in the same manner as treatises upon those subjects, is entirely novel, and it has been the result Of convictions based upon long study and practice. It would not be surprising if others should feel less assured Of its utility than the author. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Wills, Vol. 1: Embracing the Jurisprudence of Insanity, the Making and Construction of Wills, and the Effect of Extrinsic Evidence Upon Such Construction; With Forms and Instructions for Preparing Wills The Second Part of the work, which is confined to the practical detail of the Settlement of Estates, and the crea tion, construction, and administration of Testamentary Trusts, including Devises and Legacies, is nearly ready for the press, and may be expected in a few months. Some few of the topics discussed in Jarman will more naturally fall into this portion of the work. It is scarcely necessary for the author to say much of the character of his work, since that must depend more upon-the work itself, than upon any. Thing which may be said of it, even by the most disinterested. But it may not be improper to give an outline of what has been attempted. It has been the purpose of the writer to refer to all the leading or important English cases upon the several topics discussed, and to give the precise point determined, either in the text or the notes. And where there was any con ict in the decisions, it has been his purpose to give the history of the different classes of authorities, in such a manner, as to present the true principle to be ex tracted from all the cases bearing upon the point. And upon every point to bring the cases down to the latest moment, so as to give the true state of the English and American law at the time of publication. In this way, it is believed, the work will be found to present in a compact and perspicuous form, the elementary principles involved; and at the same time such a digest of the decided cases, as to become a useful commentary upon the subjects discussed, and a reliable guide, both for the student and the practitioner.

Download or read book The Law of Wills and the Administration of Estates Classic Reprint written by William Patterson Borland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Wills and the Administration of Estates This volume is a revision and an enlargement of Notes on the Law of Wills and the Administration of the Estates of Deceased Persons published by me seven years ago. That work was the publication in book form of lectures on the sub ject which I had delivered yearly to the senior class of the Kansas City School of Law. It was confined in its citations mainly to the law of Missouri and Kansas. It proved a very useful book both for students and practitioners. The present volume is an enlargement of that work by in cluding all of the leading cases in this country and in Eng land on the subject. It is intended to make this the best one volume work on the subject. It contains a concise statement of all the principles, in language supported by authority. It contains also an exposition of the reason and relative bearing of the rules. In other words, it is designed to be what the lawyer and student need - a text book which places them in possession of the subject, and not a running digest of ill assorted cases. It will be found of especial value to the Western lawyer and student, as it cites every case and discusses every rule em bodied in the common or statute law of the following group of states: Missouri, Arkansas, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Ne vada, and California. It cites, also, every case bearing upon the subject decided in the Federal Courts, including the Su preme Court of the United States, the Circuit Courts of Ap peals, the Circuit and District Courts, the territorial courts, and the courts of the District of Columbia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of the Law of Wills: With Selected Cases It would be hardly justifiable to express a conviction that this book will prove as useful to practising lawyers as to the student. But it is believed that it will prove useful even to them as a com pact and careful review and summary of the important principles and doctrines in its field, and as a convenient means Of reference to the best and most telling authorities. The very wealth of material in the large treatises, -some Of which are beyond all need of praise for their great worth and practical value, - Often renders it difficult to determine which of the army Of 'cases cited are the best for reading or reference. Here the citations are, so to speak, few, but they are carefully chosen and important. For lawyers who have not convenient access to large libraries, the selected cases also constitute a reservoir of valuable original authorities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the Law of Wills The first edition was so broad in scope that it has seemed unwise to deal with entirely new topics. In connection with the topics dealt with in the first edition, the editor has sought primarily to consider those cases which have been decided in the twelve years which have elapsed since the publication of that edition. Some changes and a large number of additions have been made, especially in the notes. Many cases in support of new text have been referred to, and a con siderable number of recent cases have been cited, because they con tain valuable discussions or deal with matters which are still in dis pute. Although realizing that defects in general statements are nu avoidable, the statements in the black-letter text have usually been re tained, but the fact that the authorities are in conflict has been made clear in many instances where this did not appear in the former edition.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Wills and Codicils, Vol. 1 of 2 Ire this Third Edition of my Treatise upon Wills and Codicils shall have the good fortune to attract your Lordship's notice, I trust it will appear to be more deserving of your countenance than the first attempt which your Lordship was pleased to allow me to present to you. I beg to repeat that those parts of the Work which stand upon the firmest ground of principle and science were de rived from your Lordship's decisions in the Court over which you preside; and that, unless I had drawn largely from that fund, I should have found it impossible to have reduced to any thing like consistency the vast assemblage of cases which centuries have accumulated upon the subject of these Volumes.

All such volumes were clearly written and prepared from collated decisions few enough as compared with those of the present day. With health and favoring opportunity I have lately condensed and reduced to this new basis one after another of my law treatises, long known to the public If any of them ever grow protuberant or costly again it will be through the labors of some other annotator or reviser.

Download or read book The Law of Usages and Customs written by John Davison Lawson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Usages and Customs: With Illustrative Cases Another word as to the form of the book. I have called the work a treatise, although I have presented it in the form of illustrative or leading cases, with notes. But in doing this I have not misnamedx it in order to obtain for my work a more dignified title. The notes are my treatise. If any one should object that he is called upon to pay for one hundred and fifty pages of cases taken bodily from the reports which are at his hand in his own library, or which he can consult else where, I shall simply reply that he obtains them without any extra charge. In order to admit them into my book, the notes are printed in a type three sizes smaller than that in which legal treatises are ordina rily printed. Thus, while neither its size nor its cost to the profession has been increased at all, I am satisfied that its usefulness to the many members of the bar who are unable to obtain access to a complete library of reports will be greater in its present than it would have been in the more usual form of a legal text - book. And even those who can obtain in their original volumes all the cases I have here reprinted. Will hardly refuse to recognize the desirability of having within the covers of a single volume all the leading cases upon this branch of the law. I have endeavored to accomplish this and by quoting freely from the opinions of the judges, by making the statements of the facts of most of the cases cited minute as well as correct, and by embracing all the adjudications on the subject, I have aimed to make my book take the place, for the judge and practitioner, not alone of a treatise, but of the original reports of the several thousand adjudications on the law of usages and customs which it contains.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Concise Treatise on the Construction of Wills Since the last edition of this work the Land Transfer Act, 1897, has come into operation. The statute makes important changes in the law relating to testamentary disposition. Though the Act has now been in Opera tion for more than two years, hardly any cases under it have come before the Courts. Sect. 4, which deals with executors' powers of appropriation, has been judiciously allowed to remain dormant by omitting to make rules under it.

This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Selection of Leading Cases in Equity, With Notes: Intended to Form Comparison Volume to Shirley's "Leading Cases in the Common Law" It will be observed that, in many instances, I have not set out statutory provisions at length. It must be remembered that this is a book intended for the use of students, and it is not an encyclopaedia. What a student requires primarily is a generalization; and I would ask those who would controvert the accuracy of my view, what logical justification exists for insisting upon the reproduction of enactments at length, and at the same time admitting that stating the substance of decided cases, and not reproducing the report at large, is the correct method of discussion. It is sufficient, as it seems to me, that a student should have his attention directed to the fact that there is a statutory power to apply the income of infant's property in mainte nance by sect. 43 of the Conveyancing Act, 1881, and that there is a statutory power given to the Court, or to the parties, to appoint new trustees.
