Theory of enterprise entity

- A Corporation is not Legal fiction alone


- Its not all about the state granting the privilege
- Lets say that a corporation was created by law. If a corporation was created but it was created
by individuals with an evil intent to defraud the public. They were trying to use the corporate
fiction for evil. If that happens the court will disregard the corporate personality. They will
pierce the corporate veil.
- IF a corporation was not created but the people tried to say that there was a corporation. They
did not incorporate under the law. There was really no corporation to begin. What will happen
in theory of enterprise entity, the court will erect a corporation even if there was not.
- A corporation is composed by the people and considering that they are composed by people,
the court may disregard or erect a corporation if circumstance requires it.
