Fiscal Jurisdiction And Accrual Basis Taxation: Lifting The Corporate Veil To Tax Foreign Company Profits, William W. Park Jan 1979

Adverse Possession in the Case of the Rights of Way of the Pacific Railroad Companies - While the weight of authority is probably to the effect that railroad rights of way may be lost by adverse possession, the authorities are by no means agreed.
