I'm studying the rights and liabilities of controlling shareholders in brazilian's company law. For better understandment of the criteria and requirements to find guilty an controlling shareholder on abuse of right we have really poor jurisprudence production in Brazil, so that I'm looking for others jurisprudence systems that may help to understand how do apply concrete methods to analyze controlling shareholder abuse of right.
Hi, I have a few cases on the abuse of power of shareholders. This is a case from EWCA (Court of Appeal Regina v Boyle Transport (Northern Ireland) Ltd and others
[2016] EWCA Crim 19). The case also referred to Prest v Prest [2013] 2 AC 415, R v Seager [2010] 1 WLR 815, CA, R v Sale[2014] 1 WLR 663, CA and R v McDowell [2015] 2 Cr App R(S) 14. Hope this would be useful for more understanding.
