The Questions for Determination
The Questions for Determination
The questions which arise are:
as a matter of construction is the continued existence of the beneficiaries named in the Will in the same legal form a condition of the gifts to them and, if so, do the gifts fail and fall back into residue?
if not, are the first to third defendants the beneficiaries and, if not, then who are?
does the gift to Burstow Wildlife Sanctuary fail and return to residue or pass to some charity that continues the relevant charitable purposes?
