Rescuing Expedited Discovery From The Commodity Futures Trading Commission & Returning It To Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(D)(1): Using A Doctrine's Forgotten History To Achieve Legitimacy, Jesse N. Panoff, Esq.
Rescuing Expedited Discovery From The Commodity Futures Trading Commission & Returning It To Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(D)(1): Using A Doctrine's Forgotten History To Achieve Legitimacy, Jesse N. Panoff, Esq.
Golden Gate University Law Review
For over a decade, judicial decisions have “authorized” the CFTC to conduct expedited discovery irrespective of 26(d)(1)’s structure and text. Instead, courts typically allow discovery because either: (i) “good cause” exists, or (ii) for no articulated reason at all. Consider that the so-called Good-Cause Test merely proclaims, “[g]ood cause exists for the plaintiff [CFTC] to conduct expedited discovery . . . .” Hence, judicial decisions have developed the doctrine in ways that are attenuated from 26(d)(1). The overall result is if the Commission asks for accelerated discovery, then courts will grant such relief. This is somewhat unsurprising because the very …
Using Game Theory And Contractarianism To Reform Corporate Governance: Why Shareholders Should Seek Disincentive Schemes In Executive Compensation Plans, Elias Pete George
Using Game Theory And Contractarianism To Reform Corporate Governance: Why Shareholders Should Seek Disincentive Schemes In Executive Compensation Plans, Elias Pete George
Golden Gate University Law Review
Employing a model of game theory, this Article shows how current judge-made law in areas of the duty of loyalty does not adequately prevent corporate managers from violating their fiduciary duty.

Part II examines agency costs, a subset of transaction costs, and the …

Corporate Governance: The Swedish Solution, George W. Dent
Corporate Governance: The Swedish Solution, George W. Dent
Faculty Publications
Sweden has changed its corporate governance system by delegating the nomination of corporate directors (and thus, in effect, ultimate control) to committees typically comprising representatives of each company’s largest shareholders. This system gives shareholders a degree of power “that only the most daring corporate governance initiatives in the rest of the world could even imagine.” By all accounts the change has been successful; no one is complaining about it.
In the United States investors have long been kept weak in corporate governance for fear that giving them a major role would damage corporations in numerous ways. The Swedish experience seems …

Department Of Defense, Inc.: The Dod's Use Of Corporate Strategies To Manage U. S. Overseas Military Bases, Matt Weyand
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
