n.d.Ges.d. Staates Delaware

English translation: under Delaware state law

German to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / Type of corporation
German term or phrase: n.d.Ges.d. Staates Delaware
This is a description of a corporation that owns a patent. Its title (in the field "Applicant") is "XX Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx LLC (n.d.Ges.d. Staates Delaware).

I suspect that "a Delaware corporation" would be a good translation, but I have not seen this particular abbreviation before, and Google hasn't either (except for this one company that comes up in patent filings). Strangely, the company in question is headquartered in Detroit, Michigan, and does not seem to be associated with Delaware in any other context.

Explanation:
oder einfach "Delaware company"



"n.d.Ges.d. Staates Delaware" steht entweder für nach den Gesetzen des Staates Delaware, oder nach dem Gesellschaftsrecht des Staates Delaware.....und das Unternehmen wurde dort ja nur gegründet und eingetragen, ihre Geschäfte können die aber von überall aus betreiben (inkl. Headquarters in MI)


A company formed and registered in Delaware may conduct business in any state, despite their corporate address.
Delaware is particularly attractive financial companies, due to its business-friendly usury laws, which give banks and credit card companies more freedom to charge high interest rates on loans.
