Property 2
Constitution is the last of the formalities that the law requires to create an effective and enforceable trust. Failure to constitute a trust will mean that no gift or trust is applicable; and the law that relates to perfect constituted gifts and trusts will not be appropriate. Moreover, the axiom of equity will intervene: "equity will not perfect an imperfect gift". The state of equity at the start of 21st century has changed significantly through a number of noteworthy cases that are relevant to Pennington v Waine (2002) 4 All E.R. 215.�

Milroy is the first case that presents the three different ways that a voluntary settlement may occur. First, by declaration of self as a trustee, where there is no need to transfer the legal title. In case that the land involved is not registered; the transfer of the relevant legal title to trustees must be transferred by deed and comply with S.52 LPA 1925. In registered land the trustees will become legal owners ones the transfer is also registered and comply with S. 27 LRA 2002. The second available way is by an outright gift and, the third way is by appointing someone else a trustee where the transfer of the legal title is necessary.

The settlement that will occur depends from the nature of property that the donor wishes to transfer. Milroy v Lord (1862), Re Fry (1946), Jones v Lock (1865) and finally Richards v Delbridge (1874)� all these cases although are four different types of property that needed
