There is no provision to expel shareholders in Germany's Closed Corporations Act. In 1942, the German Supreme Court nevertheless adopted exactly this doctrine to the detriment of a Jewish shareholder. The infamous ruling, its controversial reception among practitioners and academic writers and eventually the fate of the expelled shareholder form this study's narrative.
