Below is a posting I recently sent to the net-lawyers email
listserver, and which I thought might also interest subscribers to
this list:
In the past few months a number of subscribers have expressed an
interest in
corporate governance resources on the Internet. I thought the
following
might be of interest to those who enjoy thinking about the dimensions
of
corporate existence.
Recently I filed a a Rule 12(b)(1) motion to dismiss USPIRG from a
citizen
suit against Bayou Steel under the Clean Air Act asserting that
USPIRG's
corporate charter precludes it from asserting representational
standing
within the meaning of Article III of the Constitution. In short
USPIRG has
no members.
