+and-then Posted December 13, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 13, 2019 It will be interesting to see how the court handles jurisdiction against corporate officers. Also, I can't imagine the UK or anyone else casually allowing citizens to be tried and imprisoned for doing business as a corporate officer. The PTB takes care of its own. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
