For some historic and legal development information on the corporation sole go to http://hushmoney.org/corporate-sole_facts.htm
Unfortunately, there's been a great deal of abuse of the corporation sole as of late by various tax protest groups. Information to debunk some of that is at http://hushmoney.org/corporation-sole_myths.htm >Is anyone on the list familiar with the corporate form >referred to as a "corporation sole"? This entity is >permitted in California and seems very odd. To quote >the California Corporations Code Section 10002 > >"A corporation sole may be formed under this part by >the bishop, chief priest, presiding elder, or other >presiding officer of any religious denomination, >society, or church, for the purpose of administering >and managing the affairs, property, and temporalities >thereof." > >Could anyone point me to more information about this >business form? In particular, I'm trying to find out >(1) what states permit it; (2) what advantages it has; >and (3) whether it has some special federal tax >advantages. I've never before heard of a business form >which was ONLY permitted for religious institutions. > >Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks. > >Will __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!
