Can inherit from mom, weird rules about dad

Basically have to show that dad is your dad and has been your dad in the sense of the dad word dad

... this must be truly funny only to me.

Yet another tid bit from my corporations notes

Note on No-Action Letters Interpreting Rule 14a-8

if management believes a shareholder proposal may be properly excluded from the the corporation's proxy statement under rule 14a-8, it must submit to the SEC staff a statement of the reasons why it deems omission of the proposal to be proper. If the Staff agrees with management's statement, it sends management a no-action letter

essentially this means that if the proposal is excluded, the SEC isn't going to show up on boats and wreck your retirement party.

So, again, the lack of updates is sad.

But I have another collection of sweet note taking gems from my law school notes! Because I have to make this crap interesting somehow:

Asset-Based Defensive Strategies

Pac-Man Defense: A wants B, B turns around and is all FUCK YOU IMMA BUY YOUR SHIT MOTHERFUCKER

Internal Corporate Governance

As part of corporation's internal governance documents, they must indicate the number of shares the initial board is allowed to sell. This prevents the board from issuing share after share after share and diluting the overall value. Once the board has issued these shares, it cannot issue anymore, and if they want to sell MORE they have to go so the stockholders and say "Yo, let's sell more shares, dudes." and the shareholders must reply "Word, get on that shit."

An Excerpt From My Class Notes

Richard Nixon v. A. Ernest Fitzgerald

• P in this lawsuit seeks relief in civil damages from a former POTUSA


• claim rests on actions allegedly taken in the former P's official capacity during his tenure in office


• D was fired during departmental reorganization because he said the whole thing had to be taken back to formula... I mean the project was over budget and there were a number of issues!


• reports of "disloyalty" surfaced and were given as the basis for wrongful termination


• well, thats too bad because the President fired you in his official capacity and he's immune from prosecution for this type of shit


• "entitled to absolute immunity from damages liability predicated on his official acts"


• just because he's immune here doesn't mean that we can't try to impeach him


• this immunity doesn't leave the people without another venue for remedy


• WHITE BRENNAN MARSHAL AND BLACKMUN DISSENT


• this is some bullsmith guys


• this is why we all came to america, to make sure we didnt have a completely immune king


• way to fuck it up

Yeah, way to go Powell, Rehnquist, Stevens, O'Connor, and Chief Burger. We're gonna have a fucking monarchy and palace guards now. I hope you like being serfs, motherfuckers.
