Model Question

1) Read the blog!  Let your curiousity be your guide!

2) I labelled all the blog posts with vocabulary "Vocabulary - Wortschatz" so you can find them easily.

3) Read the next five cases; try to read all the remainder of the book during vacation -- it should be fun! Be curious! We will certainly reach page 122 during the next lecture, so be sure to have read the cases up to and including WILKES v. SPRINGSIDE NURSING HOME, INC. 353 N.E.2d 657, 370 Mass. 842 (1976).

4) Here is a model question:

Widgets, Inc. is a corporation, chartered in New York. It has 2 million shares authorized, and issued 1 million shares of common stock at 1 dollar per share. Each common share has 1 vote. It has 1000 shares of preferred stock which issue a dividend of 1000 dollars per share and are non-voting. Widgets It has debts of 1 million dollars.

Widgets wishes to outsource manufacture of its products. To do so it enters into a partnership with Bobbits, an LL.C., as a limited partner. Bobbits hires Craneco, S.A., a South American corporation to build a factory for it. Bobbits also hires SimCo, LL.P., a management consultant to run its operations in the South American factory. SimCo hires contract laborers. The contract labor is badly paid, unhappy, and often shows up to work late or drunk, resulting in pay being docked. At a labor strike on site Jorge lights a match to smoke a cigarette. Dangerous chemicals explode. SimCo claims the accident is Jorge's fault and was deliberate sabotage.

Manolo, represented by Humanitas, a human rights advocacy group, is a worker at the factory in South America. Humanitas, on behalf of Manolo sues Widgets, Bobbits, Craneco, and SimCo in the U.S. Federal Court, Southern District, New York. What result?

--------------

Dear Students,

Our first session in January is on the 24th (constitutional law) and the 25th (corporate law). I believe that means I miss exactly three sessions, which we will have to reschedule.
This is why I have been going over time during our lectures.

I suggest: Saturday, 11 a.m. on the 28th of January and 4th February then lunch at 1, then an afternoon session with break. (Constitutional law)

And then the 11th and 12th, also starting at 11 a.m. and going into the afternoon for company law.

Our examination is currently scheduled for the 14th and 15th of February. It will consist of vocabulary, which you must define in English in a sentence or three. You may refer to the same concepts in your own language. The objective there is to make certain you understand basic legal terminology. The other part will be a case which you must resolve.

Readings for next week

Read this

http://www.leagle.com/xmlResult.aspx?xmldoc=1955477309NY168_1449.xml&docbase=CSLWAR1-1950-1985

then 

http://supreme.justia.com/us/433/186/case.html

then this

http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1655983

To be clear: we look at the cases which are in the readings to reinforce the learning and to learn how to read cases (issue, rules & rationale, application, conclusion). I sometimes do the case before the reading, sometimes after the reading, I think doing the case after the reading is more effective at teaching the rules but less effective at teaching how to ignore irrelevant information and find relevant information.

Tonight's notes.

*de minimis non curat lex* the law does not concern itself with trifles.
damnum sine injuria. damages, without injury.
*INJURY IN FACT.
IF Dodge v. Ford were litigated today
Rules:

*Charitable activities? *FORD
--company insurance for health is tax deductible a permissible charitable purpose.
--education

1) Direct benefit -- schools, hospitals for employees
2) Princeton -- indirect benefit also allowed
3) Anything tax exempt.

*Business judgement rule* FORD
--no second guessing
my decision to issue dividends is business judgement.

Shareholder oppression
rules
--that the majority cannot dominate or abuse the minority shareholders
***starving the dodge brothers of capital
as a form of unfair competition.

Work of common law lawyer =
find relevant cases
and make analogies.


================================

Ultra vires
If an act is not indicated as within the corporation's powers in the corporate charter then the act is ultra vires.

Ultra vires acts are void or voidable.

Void = nichtig, ab initio, the act never occurred.

Voidable = the wronged part can avoid the legal consequences of the act.

Recall the charitable donation in the case last week. The plaintiff were arguing that the donation was ultra vires.

Ultra vires transactions may not be ratified by the shareholders even if they want to.

A party may be estopped from denying the legality of a completed transaction which would otherwise be ultra vires "in the interests of justice".
Estoppel is an equitable remedy.
Equitable remedies are Discretionary: courts may grant them, but do not have to.

Contemporary corporations usually indicate that the corporation is empowered to undertake "all lawful activity".

What can shareholders who are unhappy with management do?
They can sue
-- in their own name: a 'direct' cause of action.
-- in the name of the company, i.e. on behalf of the corporation itself as a representative of the corporation's interest. This is called a derivative site.


To make a derivative suit one must first exhaust their remedies at the corporation prior to going to the court.
The plaintiff must make a demand of the board first. If the board refuses the request the plaintiff has exhausted their corporate remedy and may now go to court.
Failure to make a demand may be excused where the demand would be futile.

The theory of the derivitive suit is that the plaintiff is representing the corporation.

==========================
Tort (Fahrlässige oder Vorsatzliche Delikt)
For every customary crime (common law)
