US Laws, Codes, Statutes & Cases

      1. An individual is criminally liable for any conduct he performs in the name of an organization or in its behalf to the same extent as if it were performed in his own name or behalf. Such an individual shall be sentenced as if the conduct had been performed in his own name or behalf.[1975, c. 499, § 1 (new).]
      2. If a criminal statute imposes a duty to act on an organization, any agent of the organization having primary responsibility for the discharge of the duty is criminally liable if he recklessly omits to perform the required act, and he shall be sentenced as if the duty were imposed by law directly upon him.[1975, c. 499, § 1 (new).]
