§ 13.1-622 Liability for preincorporation transactions

All persons purporting to act as or on behalf of a corporation, knowing there was no incorporation under this chapter, are jointly and severally liable for all liabilities created while so acting except for any liability to any person who also knew that there was no incorporation.

History

This law was first created in 1985. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 522 of that year’s edition of “Acts of Assembly,” the annual state publication listing all changes made to the Code of Virginia in that year. Unfortunately, the 1985 “Acts” aren’t available online.

1985, c. 522.
