Writer Janet Hazen says, "I have assumed that your business was
incorporated in Florida. Under Florida Statute 607.1402 you may
authorize the dissolution of a corporation by a proposal by the board
of directors and the proposal must be voted on by a majority of the
stockholders. In your case, if you are the chairman of the board and
the majority stockholder, you may adopt the proposal for dissolution
at any time." The entire article is online at the above link.
