Supreme Court rules Frick life insurance not taxed by estate
The U S Supreme Court held May 11 that proceeds from Henry C Frick life insurance policies totaling 474000 were not subject to federal estate tax under the 1918 Revenue Act. The decision notes the tax applies only to policies written after the act went into effect, avoiding inclusion of Frick policies vested before that date. The ruling leaves unsettled how trusts created during a donor life might be taxed.
