Legal Question in Business Law in Texas
Hello, I am one of the 3 management directors and 20% owner of a corporation.
My other 2 partners (each 40%), are going to sell the business. Do they need my signature?
I never attend a meeting or whatever and never signed any documentations concerning the sale of the company.
If the sell the company without my signature..is that legal?
Thanks

It depends on what the bylaws or operating agreement says.
Based on your question, more specific information is required to provide you with an opinon. Some of the items which would need to be answered are: (i) is the entity a C corporation or a S corporation? (ii) is there an operating agreement between the shareholders? - if yes, what are the specific terms? (iii) is there by-laws for the entity? - if yes, what are the specific terms? (iv) which state is the entity formed within? Upon more specific information, an opinion as to what specifically you may or may not be able to do is possible. You may want to consider consulting with a law firm to assist you with protecting your interest and rights.
