GRUT

Read a random definition: offer of proof

A quick definition of GRUT:

A guarantee is a promise that something will be done or provided. It can also be something given as security to make sure that a promise is kept. For example, if you buy a toy and it breaks, the store might guarantee to fix it or give you a new one. When someone guarantees something, they are making a commitment to make sure it happens.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: GRUT stands for Grantor-Retained Unitrust. It is a type of trust where the grantor (the person who creates the trust) retains the right to receive income from the trust for a certain period of time. After that time, the remaining assets in the trust are distributed to the beneficiaries.

Definition: GSA stands for General Services Administration. It is a government agency responsible for managing and supporting the basic functioning of federal agencies, including managing federal buildings and supplies.

Definition: GST Supertrust is a type of trust that is designed to last for multiple generations. It is also known as a dynasty trust. The assets in the trust are not subject to estate taxes when they are passed down to future generations.

Example: John creates a GRUT and retains the right to receive income from the trust for 10 years. After 10 years, the remaining assets in the trust are distributed to his children. This allows John to receive income from the trust during his lifetime while also ensuring that his children will receive the remaining assets.

Example: The GSA is responsible for managing federal buildings and supplies, such as office furniture and vehicles. This helps ensure that federal agencies have the resources they need to carry out their work.

Example: Sarah creates a GST Supertrust and funds it with $10 million. The trust is designed to last for multiple generations, and the assets in the trust are not subject to estate taxes when they are passed down to future generations. This allows Sarah's family to benefit from the trust for many years to come.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing

Wow... Luigi Mangione just pled Not Guilty. He has to be banking on a jury nullification play, right? Honestly voir dire will be the most impactful part of the trial by far, I can't imagine the defense can present any credible exculpatory evidence.

I think he just wants it to go to trial
