Some jurisdictions have gone further in attempting to control the activities of quasi-foreign corporations.

Famous quotes containing the word legal:
“It has come to this, that the friends of liberty, the friends of the slave, have shuddered when they have understood that his fate was left to the legal tribunals of the country to be decided. Free men have no faith that justice will be awarded in such a case.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
