§1-1437. Stay of duplicative proceedings
A. On motion by the corporation, a court shall stay a duplicative proceeding by a shareholder who has given a notice of withdrawal to the corporation as provided in R.S. 12:1-1435(D). The court shall lift the stay on motion by the shareholder when a judgment denying the shareholder's right to withdraw becomes final and definitive.
B. For purposes of this Section, a "duplicative proceeding" is any proceeding in which a shareholder, on his own behalf or as a representative of the corporation, alleges a cause of action against the corporation, or against a director, officer, agent, employee, or controlling person of the corporation, on grounds of a breach of duty owed by that person to the corporation or to the shareholder in the shareholder's capacity as shareholder.
