Full Faith and Credit and Asset Protection Trusts

[Douglas Laycock]

If it's a Pennsylvania debtor, funding the "Alaska" trust with assets that had no previous connection to Alaska, I would think Pennsylvania law would still apply.  I'm certain Pennsylvania has no obligation to recognize Alaska law on those facts.  And the Pennsylvania bankruptcy court would do the same.
 
I have forwarded to a bankruptcy colleague the more legitimate question where there is a Pennsylvania bankruptcy, and a Pennsylvania debtor who happens to own property in Alaska.

Would the result be the same in a bankruptcy cassette where a federal bankruptcy court was administering the estate of a Pennsylvanian on behalf of creditors?
