Legal Question in Business Law in Massachusetts
Shareholder Rights Bankruptcy Filing
I am the founder of a Massachusetts based corporation, and to the best of my knowledge, 46% owner of the company. Last year I left the organization and the officers and directors caused a cessation against me. I have little knowledge of the companies position, except that they are bearly cash flow positive, and have alot of debt (about 400k).
There has been no annual shareholders meeting, and I have have no idea about the state of affairs.
I heard today from another shareholder that they filed for Chapter 11 due to a threat from one of there suppliers to shut down services.
I have no idea what my rights are, and what, if any thing I should do.
I can't seem to find much about Massachusetts Business Law/Bankruptcy on the net.
