 Ultra vires - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Even though dicta supporting the view that ultra vires acts were totally void appeared in many cases, most courts actually adopted the view that such acts were voidable rather than void.
If an agent of the corporation committed a tort within the scope of his or her employment, the corporation could not defend on the ground the act was ultra vires.
Several modern developments relating to corporate formation have limited the probability that ultra vires acts will occur.Except in the case of non-profit corporations (including municipal corporations), this legal doctrine is obsolescent; within recent years, almost all business corporations are chartered to allow them to transact any lawful business.

 Ultra Vires-Intra Vires
Ultra Vires-Intra Vires Ultra vires [Lat, "beyond the powers"] is used in CONSTITUTIONAL LAW by the courts who must decide the respective competences of Parliament and provincial legislatures.
If one or the other, in enacting a law, goes beyond the jurisdiction allotted to it by the constitution, the court will declare that measure ultra vires.
These 2 expressions also apply to ADMINISTRATIVE LAW, the law of local collectivities, corporate law, etc. Many bodies, eg, municipalities, school boards and corporations, have powers delegated to them by Parliament or provincial legislatures.

 News | Ultra Vires
For the past three years Ultra Vires has surveyed students after the OCI and recruitment processes to solicit feedback about the approaches taken by various firms, and to draw out student responses to individual firms.
We have been informed that many of the firms do read this issue of Ultra Vires to see how they are perceived among law students, and how they fared among their peers in the process.
Shortly thereafter, on October 19, the SLS held an ‘open-forum’ for students to express their concerns with the financial aid program. There were approximately 25 students in attendance and the meeting was moderated by SLS member Kathryn Bird while other SLS members,including President Kim Haviv, were present.
