Tate-I didn't say the SEC revoked the articles of incorporation. I said that the Corporation has no legal existence at the present.

Unlike a person who doesn't pay their taxes-Riters example-a corporation exists legally only as a state registered/chartered entity-with certain federally chartered organizations being an exception. Since Serac's registration has lapsed it has no current existence.

Which brings up an interesting question. Hall has no corporate shield for any of his actions since the registration expired. He is personally liable for any action he took, including agreeing to the revocation.

Tate, are you saying that shares can still be bought and sold privately? For some reason, I thought even that was forbidden. Specutator maintains, if i read him right, that the revocation only forbids selling shares across state lines and that, therefore, trading can still take place in the state of Nevada. I say no, but I'm not 100% sure.

lol...

the SEC didn't revoke the articles of incorporation. Granted, you can't buy or sell the shares on an exchange but they still exist to do so privately.

They could do as Mikey Sylver did, and put 'em up for auction on a website:

Unfortunately no actual shares have been traded that way. And I think also that the SEC never bothered to yank Mikey's registration.
