Texas Judicial Update

Gerry W. Beyer (Governor Preston E. Smith Regents Professor of Law, Texas Tech University School of Law) has recently published his article Wills and Trusts, 60 SMU L. Rev. 1363 (2007).

This article discusses judicial developments relating to the Texas law of intestacy, wills, estate administration, trusts, and other estate planning matters. The discussion of most cases includes a moral, that is, the important lesson to be learned from the case. By recognizing situations which have lead to time consuming and costly litigation in the past, the reader may be able to reduce the likelihood of the same situations arising with his or her clients.
