Organschaft im Recht der privaten Verbände

It is only with the help of their organs that artificial persons are able to take part in legal relations in the same way that natural persons can. Thus the organ is one of the main concepts of company law. In this work, Jan Schürnbrand deals with this subject in detail and develops general theories about the organ. To begin with, he focuses on the question of who the organ of the artificial person actually is. He then discusses the practical problems, such as for example which rules apply when somebody is working for several artificial persons at the same time. Can organs sue each other in a court of law? What happens with the organs in the case of a change of corporate form?
