单词 | Solicitor-trustee |
释义 | 律師-受託人 A trustee or executor who is a qualified solicitor and performs the services of a solicitor and acts in legal proceedings for himself and his co-trustees jointly, or for himself and his beneficiaries, or where he acts separately for a person to whom trust money is lent on mortgage. In such case, the solicitor-trustee may be entitled to remuneration (Lincoln v Windsor (1851) 9 Hare 158; Whitney v Smith (1869) 4 Ch App 513), although in general the disability to receive remuneration exists where the trustee acts as a solicitor or in some other professional capacity (Re Worthington, ex p Leighton v Macleod [1954] 1 All ER 677, 1 WLR 526). In matters arising in the ordinary business of the trust and in the absence of special provision, a solicitor-trustee may charge only his costs out of pocket, and not profit costs: Re Gallard, ex p Gallard [1896] 1 QB 68 (CA). A solicitor-trustee will not, merely because he is a solicitor, be made to indemnify a co-trustee in respect of a breach of trust in which the co-trustee participated actively and not merely in consequence of the advice and control of the solicitor: Head v Gould [1898] 2 Ch 250. 身為合資格的律師及履行律師專業服務的受託人或遺囑執行人,在法律程序為他自己及其共其同受託人共同行事,或為他自己及其受益人行事,或他為以按揭借取信託款項的人各別行事。儘管慨括而言,如有關的受託人以律師身份或以苦干其他專業身份行事,會喪失收取報酬的資格 (Re Worthington, ex p Leighton v Macleod [1954] 1 All ER 677, 1 WLR 526),但在以上的情況下,律師-受託人可有獲得報酬的權利 (Lincoln v Windsor (1851) 9 Hare 158; Whitney v Smith (1869) 4 Ch App 513)。就於信託的一般業務產生的事項及在沒有特別條文規定的情況而言,律師-受託人只可就其支付的費用收費,而非利潤收費:Re Gallard, ex p Gallard [1896] 1 QB 68(英國上訴法院)。如共同受託人積極參與及不僅由於律師的建議及控制而參與有關的信託,則律師-受託人不會僅因他是律師而在有關的信託違反須對共同受託人作出彌償:Head v Gould [1898] 2 Ch 250。另見衡平法上的報酬。 |
