Legal Tip Of The Day The import of the British st Legal Tip Of The Day

The import of the British statute is that it solves the problem in the U.S. which holds that an artificial entity, like a corporation or LLC, cannot – by its very nature – manifest criminal intent.  The way around this theoretical bar is to statutorily impute such intent through the actions of the management and owners of the company.

Legal Tip Of The Day U.S. District Judge Carl Bar Legal Tip Of The Day

U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier ruled that BP Oil was guilty of gross negligence and willful misconduct on 9.4.14.  That said, under an agreement worked out with the Justice Department, it was only required to pay damages.  This British Corporation was never punished nor any of the owners or management.  Why is it that corporations get away with murder in the United States?

Legal Fact Of The Day There are no laws enacted i Legal Fact Of The Day

There are no laws enacted in the U.S. which effectively punish corporations for engaging in acts of murder.  An example would be the egregious and criminal acts of BP Oil which resulted in the tragic fire aboard the Deepwater Horizon Oil Platform on 4.20.10 which killed eleven people.  The corporation and its owners/management were not held criminally liable.  The mere payment of damages – a slap on the wrist – was deemed sufficient to compensate for the death of so many innocent souls.
