- Title
CONFLICT AVOIDANCE IN SUCCESSION PLANNING.
- Authors
SCOLES, EUGENE F.; RHEINSTEIN, MAX
- Abstract
The article focuses on the use of will as a conflict avoidance device in the U.S. and how the post-mortem operation of inter vivos transactions creates conflict of laws problems and problems of interstate succession. It highlights three principal divisions in conflict avoidance in succession planning which include dispositive provisions, revocations of wills, and administration of decedents' estates. It mentions that under the Anglo-American system of common law, succession to immovables is determined.
