Lord v. Lord

2 Citing cases

  1. Cooke Trust Co. v. Lord

    41 Haw. 198 (Haw. 1955)   Cited 8 times
    In Cooke Trust, supra, the Hawaii Supreme Court held that when, as in this case, the trustee has the absolute discretion to pay income to either the settlor of the trust or to others, the entire trust corpus may be reached by the settlor's creditors.

    (Emphasis added.) The case of Lord v. Lord, 35 Haw. 26, is cited as contrary to the numerous decisions that a trustor with the consent of the beneficiaries may revoke the trust. This case is where the settlor created a trust chiefly to provide alimony for his divorced wife.

  2. Munoz v. Ashford

    40 Haw. 675 (Haw. 1955)   Cited 19 times

    "It is a maxim that equity regards the substance rather than the form." ( Lord v. Lord, 35 Haw. 26, 39.) Hence, "* * * whether a suit is one against a State is to be determined, not by the fact of the party named as a defendant on the record, but by the result of the judgment or decree which may be entered * * *." ( Minnesota v. Hitchcock, 185 U.S. 373, 387).
