Privilege for a Private Corporation
This is the current revision of Privilege for a Private Corporation as edited by Karajou (talk | contribs) at 16:14, April 24, 2012. This URL is a permanent link to this version of this page.
The Florida Constitution prohibits the legislature from granting a privilege to a private corporation. "There shall be no special law or general law of local application pertaining to ... private incorporation or grant of privilege to a private corporation." Article III, Section 11(a)(12). This has a conceptual similarity to rules in some states against government taking private property from one to give to another.
The Virginia Constitution has a similar prohibition against granting a privilege to a private corporation.
