Presenter's Profile:
Prof. Steven Gallagher

Steven Gallagher was awarded a first class LL.B.  He was called to the Bar of England and Wales in 2006.  Steven teaches equity and trusts, property law, and a course on art, antiquities, cultural heritage and the law.  In September 2023, Steven began teaching a new course on digital technology and law.  Steven has presented over 200 continuing professional development courses for solicitors in Hong Kong on many topics associated with property.  Steven’s research interests include equity and the law of trusts, cultural heritage law, Chinese custom and law, and legal history.  In 2023, Steven published a textbook on Digital Technology and Law.  He is not a technologist.

Course Outline:

This three-hour seminar will provide an introduction and overview of the use of equity to establish and/or vary interests in property.  The seminar will consider implied trusts and the development of the law of resulting trusts to recognise interests in property.  The seminar will consider the categorisation of resulting trusts as presumed resulting trusts and automatic resulting trusts.  The seminar will then consider the seeming demise of the presumption of resulting trust and its linked but contrary presumption, the presumption of advancement, in England and its survival in Hong Kong.  The doctrine of illegality as it affects presumed resulting trusts in Hong King will also be considered.

Some of the topics considered in this seminar include:

  • Implied trusts;
  • The origins of the doctrines of resulting trusts and constructive trusts;
  • The presumption of resulting trust;
  • Rebutting the presumption of resulting trust;
  • The presumption of advancement;
  • The doctrine of illegality in Hong Kong including issues with the Small House Policy.
