Module overview

Equity and Trusts examines the origin of equity, and the principles associated with equity and trusts. It assesses critically the application of those principles to factual circumstances; the manner in which these principles affect people in their everyday lives; how those principles are to be reconciled with the principles governing the creation of express trusts, the imposition of trusts by law; how equity and trusts law adapt to changing social conditions.
