Legal Question in Business Law in California
I am a Californian. If I established a LLC in Nevada, Arizona, or Delaware and it is solely holding investments (stocks, bonds, CDs, NOT real estates). I will managed the investment in California, would the LLC be subject to the California franchise tax of $800?

Yes, the LLC would be subject to registration and taxation in California. When an LLC or corporation is engaged in a passive activity such as holding and managing an investment portfolio, the question as to where it operates becomes, more or less, "Where is the hand that clicks the mouse?"
