Wills, Trusts, and Administration of Estates

One of the most difficult tasks in the writing of a survey article is that of organization. Judicial decisions and legislative enactments just refuse to appear in any logical sequence and, just as a case or statute has been neatly assigned to a certain section of the paper, an issue pops up that suggests that it would fit better in another section. Should the discussion of that case or statute be moved into that other section or left where it is? Given this difficulty, an effort will be made to classify the materials in a way that the major issues will be discussed in the sequence in which they usually surface in the process of administration.
