Former conviction and embezzlment


Case Problem:

AstroStar, Inc., has a board of directors consisting of three members (Eckhart, Dolan, and Macero) and has approximately 500 shareholders. At a regular board meeting, the board selects Galiard as president of the corporation by a two-to-one vote, with Eckhart dissenting. The minutes of the meeting do not register Eckhart’s dissenting vote. Later, an audit discovers that Galiard is a former convict and has embezzled $500,000 from the corporation that is not covered by insurance. Can the corporation hold directors Eckhart, Dolan, and Macero personally liable? Discuss.
