A legal entity that is not a human being but for certain purposes is considered by virtue of statute to be a natural person. A corporation is considered an artificial person for Service of Process. ARTIFICIAL PERSON. In a figurative sense, a body of men or company are sometimes called an artificial person, because the law associates them as one, and gives them various powers possessed by natural persons. Corporations are such artificial persons. 1 Bouv. Inst. n. 177. |
