Courts in Florida have enumerated a number of factors that may lead to piercing the corporate veil. While there is no set equation for the number of factors that must be present to pierce the veil (and in most cases there are three to five factors present), there are particular factors that raise red flags more so than others. A few worth noting are set forth as follows: 1. The existence of fraud, wrongdoing, or injustice to third parties. https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=4ff8ebf0-4bca-426e-8273-758140f6d0eb Under Florida law, a party wishing to pierce the corporate veil must show that the corporation at issue is the mere instrumentality or alter ego of its shareholder(s) or its parent corporation, and that said shareholder or parent corporation engaged in improper conduct.

Sure, you can find them. But they don’t own it, the LLC does, and the LLC likely shields the individuals from any responsibility.

They have effectively washed their hands of it and probably written off their loss. The people that have bought tax certificates on this property are not going to push for title to the property for the same reasons, and they know that they will eventually get their money when it is settled because taxes trump all other liens. This leaves it up to the County Commission to do something. They will have to clear the property, and go through the Court System to get title to it. Like it or not, the County will have to act. So, if all the writers and readers here would raise a public outcry, Maybe Barry and gang will do something. Let’s do some simple math on this one;

Commercial property in Century is not exactly burning up the market. In addition, there are probably the costs associated with cleanup and possible remediation of the property.
