A Team Production Theory of Corporate Law
Abstract
J As an example, consider the problems faced by a homeowner who hires a real estate agent to sell her home.It may be difficult for the homeowner to determine whether the agent is truly using his best efforts to market the house and also difficult to determine whether, if the house sells or does not sell, the agent is responsible.2 See, e.g., Paul Milgrom & John Roberts, Economics, Organization & Management 214-39 (1992) (devoting more than 25 pages to developing incentive contracting and other solutions to standard principal-agent problems, with no mention of the problem of getting the agent to perform).11 See infra Section I.B (discussing team production theory of corporations).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
