SETTLEMENT
(bouvier) | SETTLEMENT, contracts. The conveyance of an estate, for the benefit of some
person or persons.
2. It is usually made on the prospect of marriage for the benefit of
the married pair, or one of them, or for the benefit of some other persons,
as their children. Such settlements vest the property in trustees upon
specified terms, usually for the benefit of the husband and wife during
their joint lives, and then for the benefit of the survivor for life, and
afterwards for the benefit of children. Ante-nuptial agreements of this kind
will be enforced in equity by a specific performance of them, provided they
are fair and valid, and the intention of the parties is consistent with the
principles and policy of law. Settlements after marriage, if made in
pursuance of an agreement in writing entered into prior to the marriage, are
valid, both against creditors and purchasers.
4. When made without consideration, after marriage, and the property of
the husband is settled upon his wife and children, the settlement will be
valid against subsequent creditors, if, at the time of the settlement being
made, he was not indebted; but, if he was then indebted, it will be void as
to the creditors existing at the time of the settlement; 3 John. Ch. R. 481;
8 Wheat. R. 229; unless in cases where the husband received a fair
consideration in value of the thing settled, so as to repel the presumption
of fraud. 2 Ves. 16 10 Ves. 139. Vide 1 Madd. Ch. 459; 1 Chit. Pr. 57; 2
Kent, Com. 145; 2 Supp. to Ves. jr. 80, 375; Rob. Fr. Conv. 188. See Atherl.
on Mar. passim.
5. The term settlement is also applied to an agreement by which two or
more persons, who have dealings together, so far arrange their accounts, as
to ascertain the balance due from one to the other; and settlement sometimes
signifies a payment in full.
