What responsibility does the company need to bear for illegal fund-raising and nominal legal person?
The nominal legal representative refers to the nominal legal representative of the company. The nominal legal representative has great risks, one of which is criminal risk. In some crimes stipulated in the criminal law, in addition to punishing the unit, the legal representative and other responsible persons may also be investigated for criminal responsibility. In addition, when the actual controller of the company uses the company to commit economic crimes, the nominal legal representative does not directly participate, but if he knows that the actual controller uses the company to commit crimes and fails to stop or let the actual controller's behavior go, the nominal legal representative is likely to bear the corresponding criminal responsibility. Even if there is a written agreement between the nominal legal representative and the actual controller that "the nominal legal representative will not participate in the operation and management and will not bear corresponding responsibilities", there is a similar agreement. To sum up, this lawyer advises you not to be a legal person in the name of other companies in order to covet small profits, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. Legal basis: Article 200 of the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that the unit commits the crime of financial fraud. Where a unit commits the crimes specified in Articles 192, 194 and 195 of this section, it shall be fined, and the persons who are directly in charge and other persons who are directly responsible shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention and may also be fined; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years and shall also be fined; If the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment and shall also be fined.
