Save Your Estate

Why should the government or anyone else direct what happens with your estate assets? Why should a court, a stranger, or someone other than your choice make the medical and financial decisions for you if you become sick and incapacitated? Why should anyone other than your spouse, life partner, or the one you choose make the decisions about your illness, hospital visits, your funeral and what happens to your estate?

Asset Protection Failure - Man Jailed until He pays Creditors

Asset Protection Failure - Man Jailed until He pays Creditors

11-30-2006 -The unprecedented length of disgraced financier Martin Armstrong's confinement for civil contempt did not violate the law, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Monday.

Addressing several novel issues of law, the circuit upheld the decision of Southern District of New York Judge Richard Owen to keep Armstrong behind bars until he obeyed a court order to turn over millions of dollars in valuables sought by a receiver overseeing the assets left over from the implosion of Armstrong's Princeton companies.
