How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that stockholder’s agent’s desire to defeat corporate claim against his principal was irrelevant to his right to list
- implying that an individual claimant could have bought shares in his own name and then filed a personal claim for damages
- fact that third party inspired and financed shareholder’s demand for list irrelevant because right to inspection depends on record ownership; trial court’s attempt to block third party’s access to list disapproved
