Front Cover
Federation Press, 1997 - Business & Economics - 218 pages
Professor Cope, author of Australia's leading work on constructive trusts, turns his attention to a major problem area for practitioners working in fields of bankruptcy and insolvency - the nature of equitable proprietary claims, the range of such remedies and the rules and presumptions developed for tracing. The first half of his new book is devoted to analysis of these issues, highlighting the effect of claims and the prerequisites for their successful establishment, particularly as regards pre-existing interests and a fiduciary relationship. The second half of the book is devoted to tracing and tracing problems at both common law and equity, particularly the equitable rules and presumptions developed to identify the subject matter of a remedy and to identify value in unmixed and mixed property.
