摘要: | 自民國90年引進忠實義務之立法,倏忽已經十年。固然忠實義務有助於促進公司治理,然而條文上的空洞,卻也造成了實務判決適用上的困擾。究其實,實係因我國並非像英美法系國家有長遠的普通法及衡平法的發展歷史,忠實義務的橫空出世確實令人激賞,但卻猶如失根的蘭花,沒有實務判決可供勾稽。將來立法者應致力於將忠實義務的內容類型化、具體化,建立起忠實義務的完整體系。
其中,現行我國文獻多將討論重心置於「現任董事」,卻忽略了「離職董事」也可能因為利用公司機會、資訊牟利,傷害公司利益。縱或有判決論及離職董事之責任,卻也僅能以侵權行為法處理,而因侵權行為構成要件及舉證責任的限制,導致較難認定離職董事之損害賠償責任;實際上,若能正確認識忠實義務的完整內容,直接將忠實義務延伸至董事離職之後,即能處理上開問題。因此,剩下的問題即為,忠實義務應當在何種情況下才能延伸?本文擬從英美實際案例中爬梳出將來可供我國法修正時之參考依據。 其次,課與離職董事忠實義務的同時,亦應落實責任的追究始有意義,否則再精緻的立法體系也只是淪為海市蜃樓。因此本論文亦重新檢視我國公司法訴追董事責任之機制,包括決定訴追董事之機關、董事會或股東會決議中之表決權迴避制度,以及股東代表訴訟。此時英國2006年公司法修正之立法例可以提供我國法一個相當好的切入點。 最後,本論文以我國法為例,檢視制度面上遇到的各種難題,在上述的論述基礎上,提出若干可能的修正建議及方向,以供卓參。 12 years had passed since fiduciary duty first introduced into the Company Act in Taiwan. Though the concept behind such action was originally to improve corporate governance, the courts however were very confused with the vacuous wordings of the article itself. As Taiwan doesn’t have the same background as England or the United States of America in law system, there were very few case materials for legal representatives to apply or reference. As such, the legislator must work to build up the system of the fiduciary duty, at the same time to classify the different types of the fiduciary duty. Nowadays, many legal literatures in Taiwan focus their studies on the duties and liabilities of the director at present or director-to-be, yet neglect responsibilities of the former or resigning director. There may be some practical cases referring to such issue, but they can only deal with the law of torts and are less effective due to the requirement of the elements and the burden of prove. In comparative law, the person that ceases to be a director is still subject to certain duties and liabilities and as such the key issue becomes finding the proper circumstances for such principle to apply, a topic that the present master thesis will explore through the analysis of dozens of cases. The amendment of requiring directors past and present to take responsibilities for their actions is of paramount importance. In accordance with this goal, this thesis will re-examine the Company Law in Taiwan and scrutinize all related issues, including determining the most appropriate decision maker when suing the wrongdoer, the avoidance of voting rights in board of directors and the meeting of shareholders, and the derivative action, with comparison to the background of the revision of Company Act 2006 in England. Last but not least, this thesis will review the obstacles that we meet currently, theoretically, and practically, and propose possible amendments based on the cases and theories that have discussed in previous passages. |
