Recognised as a key text by both students and practitioners, Equity and the Law of Trusts in Ireland provides comprehensive treatment and analysis of this area of the law. This updated and expanded new edition gives an insight into recent developments in relation to both trusts and equitable remedies. New legislation in this field, such as the Charities Act 2009 and statutory provisions providing for the variation of trusts are analysed. In addition, significant case law developments in areas such as resulting and constructive trusts and proprietary estoppel are examined and assessed. While the main focus of the work is on the law in Ireland, where relevant, useful comparisons are made with the law in other common law jurisdictions.

The use of testamentary trusts is becoming an important part of estate planning. As a result, students who want to make a living as probate attorneys will need to know how trusts fit into estate planning. In addition, bar examiners realize that it is important for students to have a basic knowledge of trust law. That realization will result in bar examination questions that test that knowledge. This book is designed for use as a supplementary text for a course on wills and trusts and the primary text in a seminar or course exploring the law of trusts.

This work provides a rational framework for legislation. The unifying premise behind the essays is that, although legislation and regulation are the result of a political process, legislation and regulation can be the object of theoretical study. The volume focuses on problems that are common to most European legal systems and the approach involves applying to legislative problems the tools of legal theory - hence 'legisprudence'. Whereas traditional legal theory deals predominantly with the application of law by the judge, legisprudence enlarges the field of study so as to include the creation of law by the legislator. The original essays published in this collection expose and develop a range of new insights into the relationship between legislative problems and legal theory in a way which will engage and interest legal scholars throughout the world.
