Questions fréquentes

It outlines three methods: outright gift, transfer to trustees, and declaration of self as trustee. If a settlement is intended by one mode, courts will not apply another.

The donor must have mental capacity (understanding the transaction, higher for substantial gifts), intention to give, and correct transfer of property. If the donor does everything necessary, equity may regard the gift as complete.

Dispositions of a subsisting equitable interest must be in writing and signed by the transferor or agent. The branch includes examples of failed and successful tax avoidance schemes.

If a donor intends an immediate gift, transfer is ineffective, intention continues until death, and the donee becomes executor, the legal title perfects the gift. Extensions include Re Stewart and Re James.

The gift must be made in contemplation (not necessarily expectation) of death, the donor must part with dominion over the property, and it is conditional on the donor's death.
