Panhandle Cooperative Royalty Company v. McLain

(dissenting.)

I think the majority opinion confuses the right of a shareholder to examine corporate books to protect his own interests with the right here claimed by McLain to obtain a list of all other shareholders and addresses.

He definitely seeks this list for use for his own personal interests. Such a list in this or another corporation could be so used for many personal purposes far too numerous to mention.

Without permission of the stockholders I have grave doubt that such a list should be furnished to a stockholder any more than to a nonstockholder who wanted it for personal interest use.
