What you think??
« on: March 07, 2010, 10:34:52 PM »
Consider the actions of a cab driver who owns his own cab. His insurance premiums for the cab are too expensive, so he forms a corporation and puts the cab vehicle into the corporation for capitalization. He is the only shareholder and the cab is the only asset of the corporation. If he causes an accident and his passenger is injured, what may the plaintiff argue in attempting to get to the driver’s personal assets? What may the cab driver argue in his defense?
