Facts: Appellee and Steven Fishman – Feld
Facts: Appellee and Steven Fishman formed âFELDâ as a limited liability corporation in 1998, to pursue business opportunities in the nursing home industry with equal percentage of interest. At the time of its formation, FELD had no assets and no business and its sole purpose is to hold the stock of 22 Acquisition. FELD did not follow the formal corporate customs like holding a bank account, having employees and business meetings. FELD observed the formalities required to form an LLC in Pennsylvania and hence it acquired the status of a limited liability company (LLC) and its role was only limited till maintaining the stocks of 22 Acquisition. Healthcare Financial Partners (âHealthcare Financialâ) and Complete Care Services (âCCSâ) proposed the creation of 22 Acquisition as a vehicle to acquire leasehold interests in nursing homes and to save an otherwise sinking investment made by Healthcare Financial.
In October 1998, FELD entered into an agency agreement with 22 Acquisition. The agreement made 22 Acquisition the agent for FELD in all business affairs and provided 22 Acquisition would act solely at FELDâs direction.
