Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law and Practice Under the Statutes Concerning Business Corporations in the State of New York: Including the Text of the Business Corporations Law, the Stock Corporation Law, the General Corporation Law, the Transportation Corporations Law, the Joint Stock Association Laws, the Taxation Laws, and Many Other Important Statutes Affecting Corporations I have endeavored in the following pages not only to present the existing statute law of the state relating to business corpo rations, but also to Show the connection between this law and the kindred statutes that have preceded it. From the number of laws that have been repealed in the last two years, and from the rapidly changing legislation of the state, those who have not examined the new laws with care are not unlikely to con clude that former statutes have been thrown to the winds, and that the state of New York has fallen into a vacillating policy with respect to business corporations. But such conclusions are not justified by the facts. For although the laws adopted in 1890, and which by their terms were to go into effect in 1891, were destructive, severe, and in many respects Objection able, they became Operative without numerous amendments intended to accompany them. And in reality crept into the statute-books without reflecting any well-settled policy of the state. As soon, therefore, as the fact of the existence Of the laws was appreciated, the work of improving and remodeling began, and in 1892 the legislature adopted laws substantially unlike those of 1890, although following their plan Of arrangement.
