ments were being made from the
principal of the trust fund, or from
interest received from investment
of the fund. In order to come to
some conclusion the history of the
case was reviewed at some length
and included study of her pre-
nuptial agreement back in 1928,
her later remuneration of the agree
ment and the final modified agree
ment, under which the estate is
now operated,
Mrs. Offutt had petitioned the
court some time ago to determine
whether she or the trustees of the
Offutt estate are obligated to pay
income tax on the amount she re-
ceived from year to year, and a
hearing on the petition was held
June II in the local court room.
The equity case was entered upon
the court docket after the U. S.
government had issued a levy to
satisfy a Federal claim of 81
14222, amount of income tax and
interest due since August, 1913, on
an amount of about $4,000 which
had been paid TO Mrs. Offutt
through the trustees. The trustees
since February have not made the
usual monthly payment, as result
of the levy.
Opinion Given
The Petitioner alleges and the
trustees deny that $1,000 is payable
annually out of corpus (the prin-
cipall being in the nature of an an
nuity, according to the opinion,
given by Judge Henderson, and he
recalled in his opinion some of the
history of the case that goes back
to 1928
Portions of the opinion given by
Judge Henderson contain the fol-
lowing:
Prior to marriage a prc-nuptial
settlement agreement entered into
the matter, dated December 81,
1928. After the marriage difficulties
occurred and in the midst of a di-
vorce suit Daniel E. Offutt, Sr.,
died. Not long before his death he
had made a will in which he re-
ferred to the pre-nuptial agreement
and confirmed it but made no other
provision for his wife. The bulk of
the estate was put in trust for the
son, Daniel E. Offutt.
The widow, Mrs Karin Offutt,
filed a remuneration under the will
and filed an equity proceeding to
set aside the pre-nuptial agreement
and to have awarded to her the
one-third interest in her husbands
estate to which a widow is entitled
under the law of Maryland.
At a hearing it was stipulated
the net estate was approximately
100000, with her claim of one
third being S133,333
New Agreement Made
Under a settlement agreement,
she was given outright household
furniture appraised at $4,000, also
given S12,50O in cash The re-
mainder, it was thought best to pro-
vide that she should have an as
sured annual amount for life, rather
than lump sum. Mrs. Offutt is
not a business woman. it is admit
ted by all, the opinion revealed.
