Definition: “gần như thế” (tức là phải cố gắng làm theo đúng ý muốn của người ủy thác tài sản một cách tối đa).
A more thorough explanation: Cy près is a legal doctrine that allows a court to interpret and apply the terms of a charitable trust in a way that is as close as possible to the original intention of the settlor when literal compliance is impossible or impracticable. This doctrine enables the court to modify the terms of the trust to ensure that the charitable purpose is still fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.
Example: The court applied the cy près doctrine to modify the terms of the charitable trust to ensure that the funds were used in a manner as close as possible to the original charitable intent.
