    The corporation may have liability, but not the individual owners.

    Explanation:

    A c-corporation have a limited liability which means that the liability of the company cannot be extended to shareholders. It is only limited to the amount invested by the shareholders.

    Therefore, the shareholders of the c - corporation won't be personally affected by the law suit.

    A c - corporation is a form of corporation where the shareholders are taxed separately. In addition to taxing shareholder, corporate income is also taxed which leads to a double taxation.
