Recommendation for Tax Planning now if husband and wife's total assets including life insurance exceeds $675,000.               A New Jersey estate tax return must be filed if the decedent's gross estate plus adjusted taxable gifts as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code in effect on December 31, 2001 exceeds $675,000. It must be filed within nine months of the decedent's death (nine months plus 30 days if the Form 706 method is used). Additionally, a copy of any Federal estate tax return filed or required to be filed with the Federal government must be submitted within 30 days of the date it is filed with the Internal Revenue Service and a copy of any communication received from the Federal government must be submitted within 30 days of its receipt from the Internal Revenue Service.   The NJ Estate Tax is in addition to any NJ Inheritance Tax. Who Must File      A New Jersey estate tax return must be filed if the decedent's Gross Estate exceeds $675,000. There is substantial taxes that must be paid after the 2nd spouse dies on amounts over $675,000. You can hire an attorney to set up Trusts to try to reduce taxes due. We charge a minimum fee of $600 for each trust within a Will. A separate stand alone Trust has a minimum fee for $2,000.     Even if your net worth is well below the threshold where the federal estate tax becomes an issue, the New Jersey Estate Tax may still be a problem. The New Jersey Estate Tax affects any person or married couple with net worth over $675,000. There is no exemption for assets you leave to your children; those assets are fully taxed. There is also no exemption for the value of your home and life insurance, so it is easy to hit the $675,000 threshold very quickly. WHAT IS CREDIT SHELTER TRUST?             The Credit Shelter Trust (sometimes referred to as a "Bypass Trust" or an "A/B Trust") is a popular estate planning technique used by married couples with combined assets in excess of $675,000. The purpose of the Credit Shelter Trust is to avoid the wasting of federal and state exemptions on the death of the first spouse. Instead of leaving all assets to the surviving spouse and thereby exposing the surviving spouse's estate to more tax, both spouse's Wills are drafted to establish a Credit Shelter Trust to come into existence and be funded on the first spouse's death.          In a typical Credit Shelter Trust, the surviving spouse is entitled to receive all of the income from the Trust for his or her lifetime, and has the right to demand principal distributions for his or her health, education, support and maintenance in his or her accustomed manner of living. Distributions in excess of that standard require the cooperation of a Co-Trustee - often an adult child of the surviving spouse or a trust department of a bank.            The amount, which funds a typical Credit Shelter Trust, varies according to a particular Client's financial and family circumstances. For Federal Estate Tax purposes, a Credit Shelter Trust can be funded with the Decedent's remaining federal estate tax exemption ($5 million as of 2012 if no prior gifts have been made). However, in New Jersey, since the state estate tax exemption is only $675,000, if the Credit Shelter Trust is funded with more than $675,000, this will cause some New Jersey Estate Tax to be paid. For example, if the $2 million is funded, the tax to the State of New Jersey is $99,600. Because of this, many Clients choose to fund the Credit Shelter Trust with only $675,000.         If the Credit Shelter Trust technique is implemented as part of a Client's Estate Plan, you can hire the attorneys for a separate fee to assist the Client in re-titling his or her assets so that assets are available to fund the Credit Shelter Trust. Re-titling is necessary because most Clients tend to hold assets jointly with right of survivorship and assets must be titled individually in a person's name in order to be eligible to fund a Credit Shelter Trust. We work with a tax attorney to help our clients.

When an Estate Tax Return Is Required   If you're a New Jersey resident and leave assets with a gross value of more than $675,000, the executor of your estate will have to file a New Jersey estate tax return. (Federal estate tax returns are required only for estates of more than $5.12 million in 2012, but this amount may change in 2013.) The New Jersey estate tax does not apply to nonresidents, even if they own valuable New Jersey real estate or other property.        The value of your gross estate is calculated by adding up all of the assets you own at death, including:                      Real estate in New Jersey   Bank accounts and certificates of deposit    Investment accounts and securities   Vehicles and other items of personal property   Proceeds from insurance policies on your life, unless you didn't own the policy                       Retirement account funds                       Small business interests (sole proprietorship, limited liability company, or small corporation)          It doesn't matter, for tax purposes, whether or not any of your assets go through probate at your death. Real estate in a living trust, a retirement account for which you've named a beneficiary, a jointly owned bank account-it all gets counted. Some other less obvious assets are also included:                       taxable gifts you made during life (more than the federal gift tax annual exclusion amount, currently $13,000 per year per recipient).                       proceeds of any life insurance policy you transferred to an irrevocable life insurance trust within three years before death.          Property you leave to your spouse or civil union partner is exempt from state estate tax, no matter what the amount.  This differs from federal law, which does not treat same-sex couples, whether they are legally married under state law or civil union partners, like married couples.     More information on Estate Tax is available on our website: http://www.njlaws.com. 2. Recent Cases   Expert Cannot Testify that Activity was Drug Distribution. State v. Jones 425 NJ Super. 258 (App. Div. 2012)         The court reversed defendant's drug distribution conviction, concluding that: 1) the testimony provided by the State's drug distribution expert, on whether defendant possessed the cocaine for personal use or instead for distribution, ran afoul of the proscriptions in State v. McLean, 205 N.J. 438 (2011), and State v. Odom, 116 N.J. 65 (1989); and 2) the admission of evidence that defendant possessed oxycodone denied him a fair trial, as he was not charged with that offense, and the State should not have been permitted to use such N.J.R.E. 404(b) evidence to bolster its contention that defendant possessed the cocaine with the intention of selling it. [This case limits experts ability to testify in other cases on the main subject matter of the case] 3. Post-Conviction Motion may be available where Trial Attorney Provided Wrong Advice. State v. Barros 425 NJ Super. 329 (App. Div. 2012)         In this case, the court previously applied Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. __, 130 S. Ct. 1473, 176 L. Ed. 2d 284 (2010), and affirmed the grant of post-conviction relief based on defendant's assertion that his attorney did not advise him that his guilty plea in 2008 to drug distribution charges subjected him to mandatory deportation. The Supreme Court granted the State's petition for certification and remanded for the court's reconsideration in light of State v. Gaitan, __ N.J. __ (2012), which held that Padilla announced a new rule applicable only to guilty pleas entered after Padilla was decided. In light of Gaitan, the court reversed the grant of post-conviction relief but also stayed its judgment to allow defendant to seek habeas corpus relief in federal court in light of the Third Circuit's determination in United States v. Orocio, 645 F.3d 630 (3d Cir. 2011), that Padilla does not constitute a new rule.    4.   2012 Municipal Court College October 29, 2012 5:30 PM - 9:00 PM New Jersey Law Center, New Brunswick A guide to handling municipal court matters in your practice and a "crash course" designed to build your skills!          This information-packed program is designed for attorneys who do not concentrate in Municipal Court law, including practitioners seeking to expand into this practice area & attorneys looking to create a niche practice.

Greetings!    Recent Cases: 1. No Constitutional Privacy in Cell Phone Number. State v. DeFranco 426 NJ Super. 240 (App. Div. 2012)            The court held that a defendant school teacher, who had previously sexually assaulted a student, did not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in his cell phone number when, at an earlier time, he had given his prior number to the student, did not seek to hide the new number from him, and had disclosed the number to the school for inclusion in its Staff Directory and to multiple parents and students in connection with a school trip that defendant was chaperoning. The court found further that the school's Resource Officer, a policeman functioning in that dual capacity, who was aware of the student's allegations of sexual assault, acted reasonably in requesting the number from the secretary to the school's principal, and that the school acted reasonably in disclosing the number to the officer. As a consequence, the court affirmed the trial court's decision to deny defendant's motion to suppress the transcript of a telephone call between him and the student that was intercepted by the police as a means for corroborating the student's claim of sexual assault with a juvenile.  2. Plaintiff Must Provide Proof that Domestic Violence Occurred. E.A. v. A.A. ___ NJ Super. ___ (App. Div. 2012) A-4391-10T3 Unreported Plaintiff appealed from an order vacating a temporary restraining order (TRO) and dismissing her complaint against defendant under the Prevention of Domestic Violence Act. The trial judge, after several days of hearings, found that plaintiff had not proven by a preponderance of the credible evidence that acts of domestic violence had occurred, or her past history claims. The judge also had "significant difficulty with the credibility of the plaintiff" and cited several inconsistencies in her proofs. The appellate panel rejected plaintiff's argument that the trial judge imposed an onerous standard of proof upon her at the hearing and relied upon "legally discredited assumptions and stereotypes regarding domestic violence" in assessing the evidence. The judge's evidential determinations were not an abuse of discretion or a clear error in judgment. As to an "unauthenticated text message," the judge did not accord substantial weight to the text message and it was not a critical factor in his credibility findings. Thus, admission of the text message was not "clearly capable of producing an unjust result." Source: dailybriefing@njsbanjldailybriefing.com5-21-12    3. Key Strategies to Get the Most Out of Your Website...

NJ Laws Email Newsletter E404 Kenneth Vercammen, Attorney at Law    September 5, 2012   Office Phone Number:      (732) 572-0500    www.njlaws.com    In This Issue:   Recent Cases: 1. Defendant May be Able to Withdraw Guilty Plea if Colorable Claim of Innocence.   2. No Violation of Defendant's Rights Where Police Entered Bedroom Knowing  the Defendant was Potentially Armed.    3.  No Constitutional Privacy in Cell Phone Number.    4. July 20 Bar A  Photos   5.  Fun Upcoming Running Races Greetings!    1. Defendant May be Able to Withdraw Guilty Plea if Colorable Claim of Innocence. State v. Munroe 210 NJ 429 (2012) The trial court mistakenly exercised its discretion and should have allowed defendant to withdraw his guilty plea in the interests of justice under the factors set forth in Slater. Defendant asserted a colorable claim of innocence based on a plausible defense of self-defense; there would not have been undue delay or prejudice had the case proceeded to trial; and the factual issues in dispute identified by the trial court should have been decided by a jury. 2. No Violation of Defendant's Rights Where Police Entered Bedroom Knowing the Defendant Was Potentially Armed. State v . Craft 425 NJ Super. 5467 (App. Div. 2012)         The primary issue in this case is whether the police violated defendant's constitutional rights when they entered a bedroom in his mother's apartment without a search warrant. The court concluded that the police officers' actions were objectively reasonable because the officers had reason to believe defendant was in the bedroom, they knew he was potentially armed and dangerous, and it was impracticable to obtain a search warrant. The court therefore reversed the order granting defendant's motion to suppress a handgun and cocaine that were in plain view when the police entered the bedroom.     3. No Constitutional Privacy in Cell Phone Number. State v. DeFranco 426 NJ Super. 240 (App. Div. 2012)          The court held that a defendant school teacher, who had previously sexually assaulted a student, did not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in his cell phone number when, at an earlier time, he had given his prior number to the student, did not seek to hide the new number from him, and had disclosed the number to the school for inclusion in its Staff Directory and to multiple parents and students in connection with a school trip that defendant was chaperoning. The court found further that the school's Resource Officer, a policeman functioning in that dual capacity, who was aware of the student's allegations of sexual assault, acted reasonably in requesting the number from the secretary to the school's principal, and that the school acted reasonably in disclosing the number to the officer. As a consequence, the court affirmed the trial court's decision to deny defendant's motion to suppress the transcript of a telephone call between him and the student that was intercepted by the police as a means for corroborating the student's claim of sexual assault with a juvenile.     4.

Police Could Search Car Involved in Robbery Without a Warrant. State v. Minitee 210 NJ 307 (2012)       Under the circumstances of this case, the trial court correctly denied the defendant's motion to suppress because the warrantless search of the SUV that was involved in the robbery fit within the scope of the automobile exception to the search warrant requirement. 2. No Jail For Careless Driving Unless Finding of Aggravating Circumstances. State v. Palma 426 NJ Super. 510 (App. Div. 2012) On appeal from a trial de novo in the Law Division, the court reversed and remanded for resentencing consistent with the principles established in State v. Moran, 202 N.J. 311 (2010). The court holds that the imposition of a custodial sentence for careless driving, N.J.S.A. 39:4-97, requires a finding of aggravating circumstances evincing as "a matter of degree" more than mere carelessness, and that the tragic death of the victim, resulting from a motor vehicle violation, is not dispositive of whether a custodial sentence is appropriate under the circumstances. 3.
