The Jury's Response To Business And Corporate Wrongdoing, Valerie P. Hans
The Jury's Response To Business And Corporate Wrongdoing, Valerie P. Hans
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Some of the most vociferous criticisms of the jury relate to its performance in cases involving business and corporate wrongdoing. The jury's competence in such cases is assaulted on a variety of fronts. Critics question the jury's factfinding ability in cases with business and corporate parties, and doubt whether lay jurors can understand the often complex and esoteric evidence of business wrongdoing. Others claim that bias and prejudice, rather than evidence, determine jury decisions about businesses and corporations. The presumed biases cut both ways. The generally positive regard in which the public holds business is credited with creating leniency toward …

State Takeover Statutes Revisited, Richard A. Booth
State Takeover Statutes Revisited, Richard A. Booth
Michigan Law Review
I have a confession to make. The title of my article that appeared recently in this review, The Promise of State Takeover Statutes, was deliberately chosen for its shock value. Since few if any reflective works have supported state takeover statutes, it occurred to me that a title suggesting there was something positive in them might get someone's attention. Clearly it did. In a recent piece entitled Missing the Point About State Takeover Statutes, Professors Lyman Johnson and David Millon take issue with my title. I say that they take issue with my title because it does not …

Corporate Life After Death: Cercla Preemption Of State Corporate Dissolution Law, Audrey J. Anderson
Corporate Life After Death: Cercla Preemption Of State Corporate Dissolution Law, Audrey J. Anderson
Michigan Law Review
This Note discusses CERCLA's preemption of state corporate dissolution law. Although CERCLA contains a preemption clause intended to specify CERCLA's relationship with other laws, this clause addresses only state laws that impose stricter standards than those contained in CERCLA, and does not address state laws that, like dissolution laws, remove liability from a party otherwise liable under CERCLA. Courts, therefore, have also looked to section 107 of CERCLA, which imposes liability against specified parties "[n]notwithstanding any other provision or rule of law," to determine CERCLA's general relationship with state law. Through such an analysis, courts have agreed that CERCLA does …

Price Effects Of Horizontal Mergers, Alan A. Fisher Ph.D., Frederick I. Johnson Ph.D., Robert H. Lande
Price Effects Of Horizontal Mergers, Alan A. Fisher Ph.D., Frederick I. Johnson Ph.D., Robert H. Lande
All Faculty Scholarship
When should the government challenge a merger that might increase market power but also generate efficiency gains? The dominant belief has been that the government and courts should evaluate these mergers solely in terms of economic efficiency. Congress, however, wanted the courts to stop any merger significantly likely to raise prices. Substantially likely efficiency gains should therefore affect the legality of mergers to the extent that they are likely to prevent price increases. This standard is more strict than the economic efficiency criterion, because the latter would permit mergers substantially likely to lead to higher prices, if sufficient efficiency gains …
Minority Shareholder Rights In Canada And England: 1860-1987, Jeffrey G. Macintosh
Minority Shareholder Rights In Canada And England: 1860-1987, Jeffrey G. Macintosh
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
This article reviews the changing relationship between majority and minority shareholders over approximately the past century and a quarter. In the last century and the early part of this century, company law in Canada and England was built on a foundation of majoritarianism, which was sometimes applied over-zealously by the courts to the detriment of minority shareholders. This majoritarianism has slowly yielded over time, however, to a greater concern for the position of minority shareholders. It is still not clear if controlling shareholders owe fiduciary duties at common law either to the company or to other shareholders. However, the courts …
The Law Of Worker Ownership, Christopher S. Axworthy, David Perry
The Law Of Worker Ownership, Christopher S. Axworthy, David Perry
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
This article discusses Canadian, U.K., U.S., French, and Swedish models of worker ownership and the legal principles which apply to them. Based on the evidence that, in contrast to other traditional forms of workplace organization, worker participation in ownership and management gives rise to greater efficiency and productivity, lower employee absentee rates, greater job satisfaction, reduced need for managerial supervision, the lowest cost per job created and a democratic workplace, the article argues for comprehensive legislation to address the relevant issues surrounding worker ownership, so that worker co-operatives and other forms of worker ownership can reach their full potential in …

Responses To Corporate Versus Individual Wrongdoing, Valerie P. Hans, M. David Ermann
Responses To Corporate Versus Individual Wrongdoing, Valerie P. Hans, M. David Ermann
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
For many years, researchers assumed that the public was indifferent to corporate wrongdoing, but recent surveys have discovered evidence to the contrary. Taking insights from these data a step further, this study employed an experimental design to examine whether people responded differently to corporate versus individual wrongdoers. We varied the identity of the central actor in a scenario involving harm to workers. Half the respondents were informed that a corporation caused the harm; the remainder were told that an individual did so. Respondents applied a higher standard of responsibility to the corporate actor. For identical actions, the corporation was judged …
Misreading The Williams Act, Lyman Johnson, David Millon
Misreading The Williams Act, Lyman Johnson, David Millon
Michigan Law Review
This Article examines the emerging controversy over preemption of the most potent of recent antitakeover laws, the so-called business combination statutes recently passed by Delaware, New York, and other states, and Pennsylvania's director-approval statute. After examining the strategy employed by the states to shield these statutes from constitutional attack, we consider the issues raised by the preemption claim and the arguments currently being advanced by the SEC and others in favor of preemption. Resolving the preemption controversy requires inquiry into the original meaning and objectives of the Williams Act. We argue that this should involve attention not only to the …
