Page 390 TITLE 28—JUDICIARY AND JUDICIAL PROCEDURE § 1401 1988—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 100–702 inserted ‘‘or exclu- sive rights in mask works’’ after ‘‘copyrights’’. § 1401. Stockholder’s derivative action Any civil action by a stockholder on behalf of his corporation may be prosecuted in any judi- cial district where the corporation might have sued the same defendants. (June 25, 1948, ch. 646, 62 Stat. 936.)
