Give me a break. If I was a rapist I'd set up a separate LLC from my main line of business and use it to hire employees for a shell company that exists for the specific purpose of employing future rape victims and limiting the damage from any lawsuits. I would pose as an employee of the LLC for purposes of interacting with these women, certainly not as the owner

It would probably be a cleaning company involving the most grotesque degrading tasks, like scrubbing dirty toilets and stuff. The employees would be young women, minorities, from disadvantaged backgrounds. Not sophisticated about human rights in the workplace, or any of that nonsense

That way it would attract women with a high tolerance for humiliation and abuse, thereby further limiting the potential blowback on me or especially on upstanding businesses beloved by the local community

I'm not saying that I condone rape, but if I was going to do something like that, that's what I would do

In short, I am not the owner of this place

First of all, the actual owner of the place is a woman, the guy accused of #metoo'ing some of the employees was an unnamed partner (although his name was widely reported in the foodieverse, so it's not exactly a secret who he was at this point)

It's a common occurrence that businesses close and reform under a new name to end or escape financial obligations of the previous business contracts.

The actual talent that made that business good will not stop being talented, and there will be something else they do next in their careers. Just keep an eye on the people who were involved. From what I can tell, the lifeblood of that butcher was their supply to sister restaurants that are no longer places of acclaim, so when relationships were severed, likely were the chain of income to those restaurants. Rent is high in NYC, you recover fast, or you close it down.

And that is a common misconception among people with no experience owning or running their own business. You and your business partner's names are all over the various contracts. Closing one biz and starting another one does absolutely nothing to get you out of debt or contracts. About the only thing it might do is fool customers. But it's certainly not going to get you off any sort of legal or contractual hook.

Depends entirely on the partnership agreement and how it is worded. For example, other partner(s) might choose to buy out the one who is leaving. Or the one who is leaving's ownership shares might get divided among the remaining partners. I have experienced both in my time.

Are you an....idiot? You know nothing about this business being a partnership or corporation, nor their contracts and terms. It is a LLC per NY record. They are almost certainly not able to get the types of contracts or insurance they'd need in existing arrangements with a scandal that large for their particular rating. A do-over was needed as well as all disassociation with those names. Yes, they are absolved from nearly all personal liability as an LLC. But, that female owner was nearly as culpable as the named Friendman guy. I saw an article a year ago about their after hours parties.
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/12/dining/ken-friedman-sexual-harassment.html
From a liability standpoint, it was pretty common knowledge about the atmosphere around staff and top clients expectations, and with the after hours guests. She'd have known, and not putting a stop to it herself makes her responsible morally speaking. This is why her butchers quit.

>> No.11117992

It's mostly done for tax purposes. Though through trusts and holding companies you can try to weasel out of various contracts and obligations by either shifting the burden to other partners and investors or simply using legal tactics to draw out any lawsuits to the point that the people suing you would lose more money in the end.

You're incredibl naieve to think that their business contracts don't name the principals of the company by name and not just the LLC itself. That's my point.

I don't know a damn thing about this business specificially, nor do I claim to know. I have no idea, nor do I care, how and why she quit. My point was limited to the statement that I replied to.

A do-over may be well be justified (I wouldn't know). The point is that a do-over is probably not getting anyone off any sort of legal or contractual hook.
