dc.description.abstractSuggests an interpretation of common intention constructive trusts over jointly owned property, where no express declaration of beneficial interest has been made, which permits better effect to be given to the true intentions of the parties. Explores the argument that a claim may be defeated if evidence is provided that the claimant's subjective intention was inconsistent with obtaining a greater share than indicated by the legal title. Examines case law, including Springette v Defoe and Stack v Dowden, which supports the present position, arguing that an appeal to the House of Lords in Stack should provide an opportunity for errors of principle to be corrected.
