Description

Although a written instrument is not usually essential to the validity of a gift inter vivos, to ensure compliance with the delivery requirement, and to avoid misunderstanding, a gift transfer should be made by a delivered written instrument.

Instrument Confirming Prior Oral Gift of Personal Property is a legal document that confirms a gift of personal property made in an oral agreement. The document is signed by both parties, the donor (the person giving the gift) and the done (the person receiving the gift). It sets out the details of the gift, including the date, the description of the property, and the value of the gift. The instrument is usually notarized to ensure its validity. There are two main types of Instrument Confirming Prior Oral Gift of Personal Property: a deed of gift and a release of gift. A deed of gift is used to transfer ownership of the property from the donor to the done, while a release of gift is used to prove that the donor no longer has an interest in the property and is relinquishing any rights to it.

FAQ

Traditionally, a gift of personal property other than money in a will is known as a bequest. Today, any gift of personal property may be known as a bequest or legacy. Today, it is generally said that a testator devises real property to a devisee and bequeaths personal property to a legatee.

Ademption refers to the destruction or extinction of a testamentary gift because the bequeathed assets no longer belong to the testator at the time of their death.

A trust can be created solely by verbal agreement but it is usual for a written document (the 'trust deed') to be prepared. This evidences the creation of the trust, sets out the terms and conditions upon which the trustees hold the trust assets and outlines the rights of the beneficiaries.

The big keys you need to make a trust are: Intent to make a trust (California Probate Code section 15201); Mental Capacity to make a trust; A trust must have property (PC 15202) There must be a legal purpose to trust (PC15203) A trust must have a beneficiary (PC 15205)

What is an Oral Trust? An oral trust is a trust. A trust is created only if (1) the settlor has sufficient capacity, (2) the settlor indicates an intention to create the trust, (3) the trust has a beneficial interest, and (4) the trustee has duties to perform.

The trust must be proved by evidence leaving small doubt of its existence, such as ?clear and convincing? evidence or ?unequivocal? evidence. It is possible to create an enforceable oral trust of a debt, although secured by a mortgage on land. The debt itself is not an interest in land.

In addition to being irrevocable, there are three additional elements that a gift must meet in order to be valid: The donor must intend to make a present gift of the property; The donor must actually deliver the property to the donee. The donee must accept the gift.

To create a valid trust, it must be clear that the settlor, by their words or conduct, had the intention to create this trust. That is why the certainty of intention is sometimes referred to as the certainty of words.
