Jonathan Harris has written an article in the new issue of the Jersey and Guernsey law Review entitled “Comity overcomes statutory resistance: In the Matter of the B Trust” (J.G.L.R. 2007, 11(2), 184-201). The article:
Comments on the Jersey Royal Court judgment in Re B Trust on the application of the Trusts (Amendment No.4) (Jersey) Law 2006 Art.9 to determine the enforceability of an English court order varying a Jersey trust. Considers whether Art.9(4), limiting the enforcement of foreign judgments against Jersey trusts, had sufficient legal basis. Assesses whether the English order should be given effect on the basis of comity.
