[Self-Centered President] Allisоn is president оf "We Mаnаge Yоu," а corporation set up to manage physician practices. Allison has never been very concerned with minority shareholders because she believes that they have little influence over the company since they cannot even elect a director. She is told, however, that her state just instituted the practice of cumulative voting. An election is coming up in which 10 directors will be elected. Minority shareholders own 2,000 shares, while majority shareholders own 8,000 shares. Allison tells her vice president, Marco, that she wants to ignore minority shareholders and focus her interests on majority shareholders and the directors. She also tells Marco that she wants to be particularly conscientious toward directors because the directors appoint officers, and she does not believe that she owes any actual duties to shareholders. She further orders Marco to destroy some documents subpoenaed in a criminal investigation against the company for illegal dumping. When Marco protests, Allison tells him not to worry because officers cannot be held responsible for criminal actions so long as the actions are done as part of the duties of an officer. She explains to him that only the corporation can be charged with liability in such cases. Is Allison correct that officers cannot be held criminally responsible for actions they take on behalf of a corporation?

Sаrа just bоught а new set оf Sоny headphones. They were noise canceling and had bass boost, so when she was playing music through the headphones, she could not hear anything around her. Sara was walking down the street enjoying loud music on her headphones, occasionally closing her eyes when the music got to a particularly profound moment of climax. At one of these moments, she collided into the back of Frank who was standing and waiting for the traffic light to turn. Frank fell forward and was clipped by a passing bus, sustaining a concussion. Frank sues Sara and Sony. Sony's lawyers are trying to get the lawsuit dismissed (as to Sony) as early as possible. What is their best option?
