Spanish generally has subject preceding main verbs. However, under some discourse motivated examples with control verbs ,the subject might appear post infinitival and precede the complements of that that infinitive. One plausible explanation for this structure is to assume that this is an instance of backward control (Polinsky and Potsdam 2002) and that this post infinitival subject is the Spell out of the subject before its moved to the main clause. However, I will propose an remnant movement alternative. This subject ends up in this position post infinitival position because massive remnant movement of verbal projections to the left has taken place. These remnant movements mask the fact that the subject is the lead to the order in which the main subject appears between infinitive and complements of the infinitive. This alternative has important advantages of drawing parallelism between these Spanish constructions and the formation of verbal complexes in the Germanic Languages (Hinterhölzl 2005, Hungarian and Dutch (Koopman & Szabolsci 2000) and causatives in French (Homer, Ishizuka & Sportiche 2009). One important advantage of this proposal is that it accounts for the following generalization: those languages that allow VSO order are also the ones that permit a wider distribution of subjects in apparent backward control contexts. We conclude that this wider distribution is a consequence of the fact that Spanish and languages with the VSO order have a higher Spec position for the landing site of its subjects.
