Business Associations--1963 Tennessee Survey, Robert N. Covington Jun 1964

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.


Corporations- Allocation Of Subsidiary's Tax Benefit From Consolidated Return, Thomas B. Ridgley Jun 1964

Corporations- Allocation Of Subsidiary's Tax Benefit From Consolidated Return, Thomas B. Ridgley

Michigan Law Review

Defendant parent corporation received from its subsidiary 3,556,992 dollars in tax benefits which had accrued to the subsidiary from filing a consolidated income tax return. By agreement between parent and subsidiary, the profit-making corporation was to pay the losing corporation the savings created by the consolidated return. The working relationship of the two assured the subsidiary profits and the parent losses. Consequently, nearly all tax benefit inevitably flowed to the parent. Plaintiffs, the subsidiary's minority stockholders, sought a refunding of benefits allocated to defendant, claiming that the agreement was unfair and alleging that the defendant, as the subsidiary's majority shareholder, …

Federal Income Tax-Definition Of Collapsible Corporation, John E. Mogk Mar 1964

Federal Income Tax-Definition Of Collapsible Corporation, John E. Mogk

Michigan Law Review

In 1948 petitioner and several other taxpayers, who had previously been active in constructing homes, formed two corporations to build apartment houses. As a result of decreases in the price of building materials and savings on labor and architectural costs, each corporation was left, after completion of construction, with borrowed funds which exceeded costs of construction. In the year following completion of construction the taxpayers distributed the excess borrowed funds of the two corporations and then sold their stock in each at a substantial profit. Petitioner reported, his receipts from the distribution of the loan funds and the profit on …

Defamation Of Corporations, Louis J. Bloomfield Jan 1964

Defamation Of Corporations, Louis J. Bloomfield

Cleveland State Law Review

Since the sixteenth century courts of law have held that an individual may bring an action for damages for libel or slander. When corporations came into their own, occasions arose where the question of a corporation's right to bring suit for libel or slander had to be decided. The first cases centered discussion on whether a corporation could sue on the basis of similarity to a natural person (an individual) or to an artificial person (an entity). While courts long have made a distinction between the artificial and the natural person, the law has been established that, like an individual, …


Tax Exempt Organizations, Edward A. Lebit Jan 1964

Tax Exempt Organizations, Edward A. Lebit

Cleveland State Law Review

Although tax exempt organizations are creatures of the state ,it is under the federal law that they seek exemption from tax. Many unqualified organizations have sought and received this exemption. Many abuses and schemes have arisen, in which even qualified organizations have been made parties. The big question is whether the exemption laws are not clear enough or whether they have been lackadaisically enforced. It is this writer's opinion that the law is adequate, and that strict enforcement of the law is all that is necessary to clear up the tax abuses by non-profit organizations which have taken place since …


Non-Profit Associations As Legal Entities, Howard L. Oleck Jan 1964

Non-Profit Associations As Legal Entities, Howard L. Oleck

Cleveland State Law Review

The truth is that some influential non-profit associations long have vigorously fought attempts to give clear legal form and substance to unincorporated associations. They like "having it both ways." It is very convenient to be able to be sometimes a legal entity and sometimes not, sometimes a partnership and sometimes not-very convenient for the association (or its managers), not so convenient for creditors, regulatory agencies, injured members, or others affected by the will-o-the-wisp nature of the association.


Parliamentary Procedure For Non-Profit Organizations, John Waldeck Jan 1964

Parliamentary Procedure For Non-Profit Organizations, John Waldeck

Cleveland State Law Review

To bring the conduct of meetings of organizations under reliable law, there are three possible solutions. First, to reform existing parliamentary procedure in order to make it correspond with the law. This is not practical. Second, to return to the legal origins of parliamentary law. The legal origins are obscure, the case law meager and the common parliamentary law too indefinite to encourage such an effort. Third, to adopt new, modern, simple rules of procedure, based on law, both case and code. This approach is both realistic and practical and can include the experience of reform experiments and legal origins. …

Constitutional Law-Self-Incrimination- Denial Of Privilege To General Partner Holding Subpoenaed Books And Records Of Limited Partnership, Roger L. Mcmanus

Michigan Law Review

A special agent of the Internal Revenue Service sought enumerated books and records of four New York limited partnerships in connection with petitioner's tax liability for prior years. A subpoena duces tecum was issued directing petitioner to produce the records, which were in his possession as general partner.

The partnerships, together with a management company, were housed in a single office with a staff of one secretary. …
