1. A corporation or an LLC might have the corporate veil of limited liability protection for their owners pierced when there is a creditor left unpaid. This is because the unpaid creditor can cause trouble for the owners for not paying the credited money borrowed from the creditor. There can be difficulties in paying in cash for owners for which such owners can be sued by such a creditor.
