Trusts & Estates
Prof. Charles E. Rounds, Jr, Prof. Anthony B. Sandoe,
4 credits day; 4 credits evening.
This course provides a basic introduction to the management and transfer of private wealth
through the use of Wills, Intestate Statutes, Trusts and Powers of Appointment. Consideration
will be given to the theoretical and practical relationships among them. As such, the course is a
combination of the two credit course in Estates and the two credit course in Trusts. A more
detailed description of the actual course content may be found in the course description for those
courses. A student may not enroll in Trusts & Estates if the student has completed Fiduciary
Relations, Trusts, Wills, or Estates. The Trusts & Estates course or Trusts is a prerequisite to the
course in Advanced Estates, Powers, and Trusts. See also Prof. Sandoe's
