Explanation:

This paragraph refers to corporations by estoppel, which are businesses that have not completed (or even started) the statutory requirements to incorporate, but act like corporations.  This denomination is used by courts when individuals act like they are part of a corporation or a limited liability company and then if something goes wrong (and it usually does), will argue that they were never a corporation or LLC. The defendants will then be estopped by the court from denying that they were part of a corporation.

Obviously this type of behavior is carried out for something illegal, since there is no reason why someone should trick other people into believing that they are part of a corporation when they are not. Generally this type of acts result in frauds committed by issuing non-existent stocks and who knows how many more bad things.
