COLUMBIA LAW REVIEW VOL. 118 OCTOBER 2018 NO. 6 ARTICLES SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND CORPORATE LAW Daniel Hemel * & Dorothy S. Lund ** The #MeToo movement has shaken corporate America in recent months, leading to the departures of several high-profile executives as well as sharp stock price declines at a number of firms. Investors have taken notice and taken action: Shareholders at more than a half dozen publicly traded companies have filed lawsuits since the start of 2017 alleging that corporate fiduciaries breached state law duties or violated federal securities laws in connection with sexual harassment scandals. Additional suits are likely in the coming months. This Article examines the role of corporate and securities law in regulating and remedying workplace sexual misconduct. We specify the conditions under which corporate fiduciaries can be held liable under state law for perpetrating sexual misconduct or allowing it to occur. We also discuss the circumstances under which federal securities law requires issuers to disclose allegations against top executives and to reveal settlements of sexual misconduct claims.

(“National Amusements”), NAI Entertainment Holdings LLC (“Holdings,” and together with National Amusements, “NAI”), and Shari Redstone (collectively, with NAI, “Plaintiffs”), by and through their undersigned counsel, upon knowledge as to themselves and otherwise upon information and belief, allege for their Verified Complaint herein as follows: NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. This case is about extraordinary, unjustified and unlawful actions by certain of the Directors (the “Director Defendants”) of CBS Corporation (“CBS” or the “Company,” and together with the Director Defendants, “Defendants”) to unilaterally dilute the voting rights of its controlling stockholder, NAI, for all purposes and for all time. It is undisputed that the Director Defendants’ actions are unprecedented under Delaware law. 2. The dilutive dividend—which the Director Defendants approved following a hastily called and perfunctory special meeting (“Special Meeting”) of the CBS Board (“Board”) on May 17, 2018, and on a “conditional” basis pending Delaware court review—is invalid for at least four reasons: (i) it was declared in violation of the Company’s bylaws; (ii) it was based on the recommendation of a special committee, comprised of five Director Defendants (“Special Committee”), acting far beyond its authority; (iii) it violates the Company’s charter; and (iv) the Director Defendants’ purported dilution of CBS’s voting stockholders violates the directors’ fiduciary duties in numerous ways.
