  1. Reasons to set up a trust to protect children and grand children with addiction issues
Given the current epidemic of addiction in our society, it's natural that many families have a child who is addicted to drugs or alcohol. Estate planning for addicts can be emotionally and mentally difficult, because a parent likely do not want to disown the child. However, as responsible parents, a parent likely want to ensure that any inheritance the child receives is not made available to them until they are clean or sober.
Taking steps to create an estate plan that considers and accounts for the child's addiction can prevent them from receiving a lump sum of funds while they are under the influence. By preventing the child from receiving too-large an inheritance at one time, a parent reduce the possibility of hard-earned family assets being wasted and protect the child from harming him or herself because of their lack of control regarding their substance and access to a large amount of money.
Fortunately, there are several steps a parent can take which can help a parent to leave the assets to the child without giving them assets they could use to harm themselves. While a parent should always discuss the situation and theirs with a professional estate planner or tax professional, the following include ways that a parent can make estate-planning work for a parent and the child.

2. Understanding Disinheritance 
Disinheritance is often the first option for those considering estate planning for an addict. Depending on the situation, it may be the right decision, but a parent most likely don't want to consider it. Even if a parent are estranged from the addicted child, a parent likely still care for them deeply and want the best for them. Disinheritance is the process of cutting a person out of the will so that if a parent die, they receive nothing. While it may be tempting for some, especially if a parent believe that the child will likely never get better, this decision cannot be changed without rewriting the will, even if the child goes into rehabilitation and becomes clean or sober. If a parent choose to disinherit the child, a parent must leave specific instructions stating that they receive nothing. Should a parent choose to do this, it is crucial that a parent do so with a lawyer present, so that the child cannot contest the will.
Disinheritance is most often used when there are multiple potential beneficiaries, such as other children, and often with the intent that the sibling give some of the estate once the addict is back on his or her feet. However, this may or may not work out depending on family dynamics.

3. Using a Spendthrift Trust for Addicts 
A spendthrift trust is one of the best options when estate planning for addicts. There are several forms of this trust a parent can consider, and each has pros and cons. At it's most basic, the spendthrift trust enables a parent to put spending authority in the hands of a trustee, or a trusted person who will control the reckless spending of the child. This can prevent them from wasting funds and can prevent them from using funds to purchase drugs.
Spendthrift clauses in trusts are also valuable because a parent can use them to provide necessary funds such as child support, alimony, food, and shelter to the beneficiary, without allowing them to spend anything else. This enables a parent to offer support, even after a parent are deceased.
Finally, spendthrift clauses typically protect the funds in the estate from creditors. So long as the funds are in the trust, creditors cannot reach them. This is ideal in instances where the child may have to declare bankruptcy due to poor financial decisions while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, has a large amount of debt, or is likely to accrue a large amount of debt. However, once funds are taken out of the trust, they can be garnished by creditors.
In some cases, a parent may be able to set up a discretionary spendthrift supplementary needs trust, which enables the child to qualify for needs-based government benefits (SSI, Medicaid, housing, SNAP, etc.), while offering the other benefits of the trust.
The best way to set this up is to create a Testamentary Discretionary Trust with a spendthrift clause, which will come into effect after a parent are deceased. Then, the funds will be moved into trust and spending will be controlled by the trustee for the benefit of the child (the beneficiary).

Risk Avoidance
If the elderly parent transfers assets to children, rather than puts them in a trust, certain risks must be anticipated.  These risks can be avoided if the assets are put in a trust.  The risks of an outright transfer include:
* Claims of creditors. The claims of the creditors of the adult children could be satisfied through the assets of the parent if the parent makes outright transfers to the children.
* Matrimonial action. If a child to whom assets are transferred is subsequently divorced, the transferred assets may become subject to a claim of equitable distribution.  While the law dictates that assets transferred from a parent to a child are not subject to equitable distribution, practitioners in the field of family law indicate that judges often find ways to give additional assets, other than the transferred assets, to the other spouse.  In addition, the assets transferred could affect alimony or support rights or obligations.
* Bad habits. If a parent transfers assets to a child who is a gambler, a drug addict, an alcoholic, or a spendthrift, the assets may be squandered and no longer be available to the parent.

1. Supreme Court Assigns Four Recall Judges to Sit as Municipal Court Judges to Resolve State v. Cassidy Matters

SUPREME COURT OF NEW JERSEY
WHEREAS the Supreme Court issued its decision in State v. Eileen Cassidy. 235 N.J. 482 (2018), holding that breath test results from Alcotest machines calibrated without using a thermometer that produces NIST-traceable temperature readings in the calibration process are inadmissible as evidence; and
   WHEREAS the Judiciary has been notified by the Office of the Attorney General that there are 20,667 DWI cases in which defendants' breath samples were procured using such improperly calibrated machines; and
     WHEREAS the Court by order of January 29, 2019 designated retired Appellate Division Judge Robert A. Fall, serving on recall, as special master for purposes of coordination of the management of such cases on a statewide basis to develop better processing of these cases, to provide greater consistency and efficiency, and to minimize conflicts and delays, and with the special master having the authority to make judicial and administrative decisions relating to such cases that have been adjudicated; and
   WHEREAS the special master has recommended the assignment of a number of retired Superior Court judges on recall to sit as Municipal Court judges to resolve certain of these cases;
     It is ORDERED that, effective immediately and until further order, the following retired Superior Court judges presently serving on recall, in addition to their existing recall assignments, are assigned to sit as Municipal Court judges with statewide jurisdiction to resolve matters subject to the statewide administration of cases affected by the Court's Cassidy decision:
Dated: July 25, 2019
   Judge Robert A. Fall (lead judge) Judge Linda G. Baxter
   Judge Stephan C. Hansbury Judge Robert B. Reed

2. Thank you to many persons that wishes me a Happy Birthday on August 7. 

     I will not be having an official party like I did when I turned 50. On August 23 at the Edison Elks Thirsty Thursday we will bring a sheet cake, listen to the band and celebrate good times. I invite anyone to stop over. Free admission to band. Inexpensive drinks and food.

3. Have a Power of Attorney prepared for your college children and children traveling out of state

         There are many good reasons to consider getting a Power of Attorney and Medical Directive for your adult "child". A prominent Monmouth County Law office wrote while you made certain decision for your child before he or she turned 18, you have no authority to take action now. In the event your child becomes ill or has a serious accident while they are away, you do not have legal right to withhold Power of Attorney, it is important to have a plan in place to deal with their health, financial, educational and legal needs.

Durable Power of Attorney to handle finances will enable you to take care of tasks for your child. This includes: registering their car; communicating with their college about issues which fall under HIPAA, like grades and disciplinary actions; completing financial transactions at their bank, their college, etc. If your child runs in to an issue with their passport while they are overseas, you can be assured that you have the authority to help.

       Living Will or Health Care Directive is important in the event of an accident or illness. You will be able to talk to medical staff and make decisions on your child's behalf, if necessary.

       While you may never need to use these documents, it is better to be safe than sorry!

Summer Blast Happy Hour July 12, 2019 at Bar A was a good time. 4. Charity Running & other Community Events. 5. Ken V will be turning 60 in August 2019.


                                                                              August 1, 2019

In this Issue:
1. Recent case Police Permitted to Inventory Search Car that was being Towed. State v Rodriquez 458 NJ Super. 391 (App. Div. 2019)
2. Defendant's Confession and the Drug Evidence must be Suppressed. State v. Shaw
3. Summer Blast Happy Hour July 12, 2019 at Bar A was a good time.
4. Charity Running & other Community Events. 
5. Ken V will be turning 60 in August 2019

1. Recent case Police Permitted to Inventory Search Car that was being Towed. State v Rodriquez 458 NJ Super. 391 (App. Div. 2019)
         In State v. Witt, 223 N.J. 409, 415 (2015), the Supreme Court revised the standards under New Jersey law governing police searches of motor vehicles that have been lawfully stopped at the roadside. The Court held such roadside searches may be conducted without a warrant if: (1) the police have probable cause to believe the vehicle contains evidence of criminal activity; and (2) the situation arose from unforeseeable and spontaneous circumstances. Id. at 446-48.
         The appellate court declined to engraft upon Witt a limitation that would disallow such otherwise-permissible roadside searches in situations where the police have a basis to tow away and impound the vehicle. Consequently, the trial court's suppression order that was founded upon such a rationale is reversed. Moreover, there was no unreasonable delay in this case by the officers in making their decision to proceed with the search at the scene based on probable cause.
2. Defendant's Confession and the Drug Evidence must be Suppressed. State v. Shaw
         In this case, the Court considers whether evidence found in a motel room and vehicle and defendant Nathan Shaw's statement to police should have been suppressed. 
         HELD: Defendant's confession and the drug evidence must be suppressed. 
        1. Under the third-party intervention doctrine, a person's reasonable expectation of privacy is not violated by the actions or search of a private actor. See State v. Wright, 221 N.J. 456, 459 (2015). Fourth Amendment protections apply only to governmental action, and a subsequent search by law enforcement -- so long as it does not exceed the scope of the private search -- may not require a warrant if it does not infringe any constitutionally protected privacy interest that had not already been frustrated as a result of the private conduct. The doctrine traditionally applied to searches of objects either physically conveyed or reported to the police. See id. at 459, 468-69. In Wright, the Court held that the doctrine could not be applied to searches of private dwellings -- including rented apartments -- under our State Constitution. Id. at 476. Although Wright discussed apartments, its reasoning applies with equal force to motel rooms. Where a motel owner or employee finds contraband in a guest's room, "the police can use that information to obtain a search warrant and then conduct a search." Id. at 478-79. "In the time it takes to get the warrant, police officers can secure the [motel room] from the outside, for a reasonable period of time, if reasonably necessary to avoid any tampering with or destruction of evidence." Id. at 478. Here, the motel search was unconstitutional and the illegal fruits of that search must be suppressed.   
       2. Police must have particularized suspicion in order to conduct an investigatory stop, and the duration of an investigative stop must be limited in time and scope to the purpose that justified the stop in the first place. If the officer's conduct is more intrusive than necessary, the investigative stop turns into a de facto arrest. Once it was determined that Shaw was unarmed and had no outstanding warrants, there was no particularized suspicion that Shaw was engaged in criminal activity that would justify Shaw's further detention. Under the circumstances here, isolating Shaw in the back of a patrol car despite a negative warrant check was a de facto and an unlawful arrest.   
       3. It was during that period of unlawful detention that Shaw stated there was marijuana in the bag. To decide whether to suppress a statement obtained after an unlawful arrest, courts consider three factors: the temporal proximity of the arrest and the confession, the presence of intervening circumstances, and, particularly, the purpose and flagrancy of the official misconduct. Here, Shaw's confession was a product of his unlawful de facto arrest and must be suppressed. Shaw's confession occurred during his unlawful detention, and the Court is not persuaded that the presence of the drug-detection canine purged the taint of the illegal arrest. Shaw was never informed of his right to remain silent and was held without individualized suspicion. Although his confession was not made in response to an interrogation, the Court is not convinced it was a product of his own free will.   
       4. The Court next addresses Shaw's standing to challenge the search of the tote bag. Whenever a defendant is charged with committing a possessory drug offense -- as in this case -- standing is automatic, unless the State can show that the property was abandoned or the accused was a trespasser. The tote bag was found in the back seat of a car that had four occupants. They were ordered out of the car. The State simply has not established that the bag was abandoned property. The trespasser exception has even less relevancy. The record is devoid of any evidence that Shaw put the drugs in the tote bag without Dickerson's knowledge. Shaw had automatic standing to challenge the search of the bag.   
       5. The Court thus considers whether the search fell within the consent-search exception to the warrant requirement. An individual's voluntary consent to search a constitutionally protected area eliminates the need for law enforcement to obtain a warrant. When Hanson consented to the search, she had already been arrested and handcuffed. The officers asked her multiple times for consent to search the vehicle. She relented only after an officer informed her of Shaw's unlawfully obtained confession. The warrantless search of the Tahoe was unconstitutional and the evidence seized through that search is therefore subject to suppression. Nor can the evidence come in through Shaw's confession.   
       6. The State failed to make the necessary showing under either inevitable discovery or the independent source exceptions to the exclusionary rule. Accordingly, the unconstitutionally obtained evidence remains suppressed.   (A-33/34-16)
