Purpose Trusts

Charities


Imperfect Obligations


Re Denly's Will Trusts 1969


UIA

Non-Charitable purpose trusts

No ascertainable beneficiaries, can't enforce legal right.


Will violate perpetuity rule

Imperfect Obligations

These exceptions are ‘anomalous and aberrant’ (Re Endacot 1960), and are unlikely to be expanded upon.

Imperfect Obligations 2

Trusts of imperfect obligation can be one of 4 categories; erection or maintenance of tombs and monuments, maintenance of animals, saying masses for the dead or promotion and furtherance of fox hunting

Perpetuity

A purpose trust (except charities) cannot continue forever so it must not last longer than a human life in being plus 21 years. The Perpetuities and Accumulations Acts of 1964 and 2009 do not apply to this rule.

Useless

“useless, wasteful or capricious.”(Brown v Burdett 1882).


“sheer waste of money” as identified in the case of McCraig v University of Glasgow

Animals

Pettinghall v Pettinghall 1842 it was money to provide for his favourite horse, while in Re Dean it was £750 per annum for his horses and hounds. Re Dean did have an anomaly where the trust was valid for the 50 years stated.

Monuments/Tombs

Musset v Bingle 1876 where the erection of a monument was held to be a valid trust or Re Hooper where the upkeep of family graves for the legal period

Masses

Could be charitable if public


Bourne v Keane 1919 the trust established for the saying of masses was valid.

Foxes
