Explains why restraints on alienation of property matter and how they work in practice. This concise survey examines how economic and legal limits on transfers affect life estates, trusts, and expected income streams. It clarifies the balance between protecting dependents and preserving creditors’ rights, using historical and modern authorities to show real-world outcomes.
From the basics of life estates and fees to the reach of spendthrift provisions, the book lays out the governing principles and the practical consequences for trustees, settlors, and beneficiaries. It also traces how courts and legislatures have treated gifts, settlements, and the rights of creditors across jurisdictions, with careful attention to the rule against remoteness and the policy goals behind these restraints.
Ideal for readers of legal history and property law who want a clear, structured overview of when and why restraints on alienation are allowed or rejected.
