Offering the traditional, solid approach of previous editions and now streamlined to include more topics for a one-semester course, Hamilton and Macey's Cases and Materials on Corporations covers the law of business associations and corporations for introductory courses. The book discusses all forms of business organization, including limited-liability companies, partnerships, closely held corporations, publicly held corporations, and novel business forms. It also covers transactions in shares by directors and others; indemnification and insurance; and federal securities law, including insider trading, corporate governance, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Updated to include new developments, the book covers topics such as Sarbanes-Oxley and more aggressive posturing of the Delaware judiciary, which was revealed for being just that after the important Disney decision; recent developments in asset protection for investors in limited liability companies; the Securities Litigation Uniform Securities Act; new regulations about full disclosure by registered publicly held companies; and the independence of auditors, dirctors and special litigation committees.

Such materials include the Revised Uniform Partnership Act (1997 and 2013), the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (1976 with 1985 amendments), the Uniform Limited Partnership Act (2001 and 2013), the Uniform Limited Liability Company Act (1996), and the Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act (2006 and 2013).
