Question:

Pillsbury believed U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War was wrong. He learned that Honeywell, Inc., had a large contract to produce antipersonnel fragmentation bombs and he became determined to stop such production. He learned that a trust set up for his benefit owned 242 shares of the stock, but the shares were voted by a trustee. Pillsbury bought one share in his own name. As a shareholder, he petitioned the court to order Honeywell to produce its shareholder ledgers and all records dealing with weapons manufacture. He wanted to convince other shareholders to change the board of directors and have the corporation stop making munitions. Should the court grant his request? (Pillsbury v. Honeywell, Inc., 291 Minn. 322, 191 N.W.2d 406)
