I write in response to the answers made to the query 'Transfer and trust' (Taxation, 1 December 2005, page 247) in which reference is made to the prior transfer of property into joint names before a sale.
We are currently contesting two cases where ownership has been transferred to a spouse prior to sale. In both cases the legal title has been transferred into joint names.
