Enduring Design For Business Entities, William E. Foster

Utah Law Review

The success or failure of an institution may hinge on some of the earliest decisions of its founders. In constitutional design literature, endurance is a widely accepted drafting objective. Indeed, constitutional endurance is positively associated with prosperous and stable societies. Like drafters of constitutions, business organizers have almost innumerable objectives for their enterprises, and attorneys drafting organizational documents must take into account these myriad goals. Oftentimes the drafting process fails to fully address some of the most important of these aims and results in suboptimal structures that lack predictability and reliability.

This article looks specifically at small business organizations and …

Improving The Benefit Corporation: How Traditional Governance Mechanisms Can Enhance The Innovative New Business Form, Steven Munch

Northwestern Journal of Law & Social Policy

In recent years, a number of states have offered innovative new business forms to accommodate social enterprises, organizations that pursue both profit and social purpose. These hybrid forms are designed to free socially conscious entrepreneurs from the strict pursuit of shareholder value maximization that often controls in business practice and law, allowing them instead to serve the interests of other company stakeholders or even society. One form, the benefit corporation, has been adopted by seven states and is now under consideration in several more. This Note details the development, provisions, and advantages of the benefit corporation. It also identifies and …

Business Associations--1963 Tennessee Survey, Robert N. Covington

Vanderbilt Law Review

Section two of the act creating Tennessee's new Law Revision Commission charges that body with the duty to study and report to the next legislature on "the laws governing the organization and operation of corporations, partnerships and other forms of business and social endeavor." The study is now roughly a year old and is reportedly making good headway. Since much of our law of business organizations may therefore be changed in the near future, this Survey has been abbreviated as much as possible.

Business Associations--1958 Tennessee Survey, F. Hodge O'Neal

Vanderbilt Law Review

Only a handful of cases were decided in Tennessee during the survey period which raised questions in the field of business associations.Some of the issues raised in these cases, however, were of considerable interest and importance. ...

Disregarding Corporate Entity in Close Corporation: The close corporation, just as the public issue corporation, is generally viewed as a "legal entity" having in law an existence separate and apart from its shareholders. This means that rights, duties and other legal relations arising out of an incorporated enterprise, irrespective of whether it is widely held or closely held, are usually adjusted as though …

Business Associations -- 1957 Tennessee Survey, F. Hodge O'Neal

Vanderbilt Law Review

Very little happened in the field of Business Associations during the survey period. The General Assembly enacted one fairly important set of amendments to the Securities Law, and the Tennessee appellate courts handed down two or three decisions which in a large part merely reiterated principles of corporation law already well-established in this state.

Amendments to the Securities Law Broadening Grounds for Refusing or Revoking Registration of Securities: The Securities Law of 1955 among other things set up a procedure for the registration of securities intended for sale and gave the Commissioner of Insurance and Banking authority to investigate the …

Business Associations -- 1956 Tennessee Survey, F. Hodge O'Neal

Vanderbilt Law Review

Surprisingly few cases were decided in the field of Business Associations during the survey period. Those decisions for the most part merely reaffirmed legal principles already established in Tennessee law. One of the cases, Wyatt v. Brown,' raised again the interesting old question of what is a partnership and what factual elements are necessary to constitute the partnership relation. This article discusses that question first and then comments rather briefly on the other cases and the principles they enunciate.
