Description
The plaintiff Alvak Enterprises, a California corporation, brought this action to enjoin the defendants Philip C. Phillips and Edith Phillips from interfearing with the operation of a hotel owned by the corporation. The defendants answered and eventually, as directors, filed a second amended cross-complaint seeking dissolution of the corporation; a Milton Niemetz joined with them as cross-complainants; the corporation and its president, Alfred Spivak, were named as cross-defendants. Thereupon, Mr. Spivak, as owner of 50 per cent of the shares of the corporation, by notice and motion, initiated proceedings under section 4658 of the Corporations Code to avoid dissolution of the corporation by the purchase of the remaining 50 per cent of said shares which he alleged were owned by the cross-complainants. His notice recited that the motion would be based on "all the papers, records and files in the action." Prior to this time motions with respect to a preliminary injunction and for the appointment of a receiver had been heard by the court. Voluminous affidavits had been filed in connection with these hearings. In addition, the original complaint, an answer thereto, the original cross-complaint, an amended cross-complaint and a second amended cross-complaint with an answer thereto, all verified, were on file in the action. There was a great deal of conflicting evidentiary matter thus presented to the court on the motion to stay proceedings and avoid a dissolution under section 4658 et seq. of the Corporations Code.
