Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Legal Nature of Corporations The question of the nature of corporate existence has a peculiar interest and fascination. Few writers on the subject of corporations ignore it altogether, and our courts have repeatedly enunciated their views as to what a corporation really is. The result is that our law has its accepted theory of corporate exist ence, while it can hardly be said to have such a theory with regard to the nature of contract, Obligation, or incorporeal property. If we have an accepted theory, it is worth while to examine it as to its truth. The problem of corporate existence has a much wider than Simply legal bearing. It has an even greater interest to the sociologist than to the jurist. But I have confined myself tothe corporation as a legal institution, ignoring the subject of association as a factor in economic, social, and political life.

Excerpt: ... ions, and their not prevailing indicates some form of weakness in their position, the result depending upon a trial of strength. A share in the control is legally secured to all, although it may prove to be incapable of affecting the final act. Undoubtedly there is a strong element of trust in representative action. The interest of all the associates is a determining factor in controlling those who act as representatives. This is especially clear in the case of delegated representation, and boards of directors and other officers are generally considered and treated as trustees for the corporators. But it also applies to the quorum and the majority, for the security of the joint interests is the justification and therefore also the limitation of their power to represent. Should a majority act for their own benefit clearly adversely to the interests of the association, the minority would not be bound thereby. The difficulty in such cases lies not in the principle, but in the proof of its violation.1 There are, however, other elements in which the idea of a trust does not appear to be controlling. The quorum and the majority pursue interests which they feel to be their own, and they are justified in following their own discretion in judging what the common benefit requires, although the result will be the preferment of their own advantage over that of the minority. Acting in the exercise of their own rights, they are not accountable to those whom they bind by their action, though it may result in loss which might have been avoided by greater care and prudence. Above all while a trust is committed to a definite person or persons, the functions of representatives and represented in the majority rule are fluctuating and indeterminate, so that...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Private Corporations IT is generally recognized that, while legislatures may endeavor to direct, courts should follow the business habits of the people, and, without thwarting what custom has found convenient, render decisions in accordance with scientifically adjusted principles of justice. Even then the law must be somewhat behind the practice of the business community; for questions cannot be litigated until the transactions giving rise to them have been engaged in, and although business men seek to act with reference to the law, occasions for novel methods of business continually arise, and novel questions come before the courts. It is clear, moreover, that though a court bring the decision of the novel point within recognized legal principles, some extension or modification of the law has occurred. And thus courts continually change the law by en deavoring to keep it abreast of the people's life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
