Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter examines how the Scottish trust is — and is not — found in the common law. First, how it is not: the trust of the common law tradition cannot be understood according to the principles that underlie the trust of Scotland. But then, how it is: the common law does have an institution that corresponds almost exactly to the Scottish trust. Before analysing the ubiquitous presence of Scottish trusts in the common law, the chapter considers trust as it relates to the administration of the estate of the deceased, the position of estate beneficiaries, and trustees and personal representatives in the common law. It also discusses some recent developments in trusts in the common law world and concludes with an analysis of the implications of such developments for trust beneficiaries and non-contractual creditors.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
