ABSTRACT
Resulting trusts arise in the following situations: where the absolute owner of property has purported to create an express trust but has failed to identify the person for whom that property is to be held;1 where the absolute owner of property has provided part of
the purchase price of property as part of a common intention that they are to take an equitable interest in that property;2 and where the defendant has acquired property in their own name which is intended beneficially for the claimant using money provided by the claimant.3
