What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL
Hi, we opened a company (C Corp) back in 2012 (3 co-founders with equal shares). We all set out the responsibilities and roles (mostly verbal) but the job titles on paper.
the CEO was responsible for growing the business and me (COO) and the (CTO) to work on the tech and operations. The CEO has not even got us one client or performed any of the roles or tasks that we have all agreed he should do, even arranging filing taxes, which at this point we don't even know if he did or not, he is not telling us or showing proof.
We have all agreed to pay $3K each to capitalize and pay for company debt (I have email confirmation from him) but we are not getting any responses from him anymore.
The whole company does not wants to work with him anymore and the CTO and myself have agreed to remove him from the company.
We hold majority votes so is my understanding we can fire him as the CEO. But what about the shares? does he get to keep them? even if he hasn't done any of the tasks or roles he was set to do?
and what about the $3K? is there any legal process to force him to pay to what he agreed?
Thank you in advance!
