latest Annual Report and Minutes.
Legal History...
- Minuscule University Press was first organized early in 1981 to publish
a book by Dwight Winenger entitled "Music For Dummies," now in
the process of a revised second edition called
"Functional Chromaticism."
(ISBN: 0-931805-00-7 and ISBN: 0-931805-01-5)
- The first issue of "Living Music," a quarterly periodical designed for
composers and performers of new music, was published Vol. 1, No. 1, fall, 1983.
(ISSN: 8775-092X) We have consistently complied with the Library of Congress,
Register of Copyrights' mandadory deposit of two copies each issue since
December 1, 1983.
- Minuscule University Press became California corporation No. 1250273
on June 25, 1984.
- The Internal Revenue Service approved our operation as a not-for-profit
foundation for an advance ruling period beginning with the date of our
inception and ending on September 07, 1984. Our Employer Identification
Number: 33-0049520
- February 27, 1987, the Internal Revenue Service modified the former
letter concerning our advance ruling period, indicating that our "exempt status
as a...publicly supported organization...under section 501 (c)(3) of the code
is still in effect."
"Grantors and contributors may rely on this determination until the Internal
Revenue Service publishes a notice to the contrary."
(No notice to the contrary has been published to date.)
- October 17, 1995, Certificate of Amendment No. A467618 was endorsed filed
in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of California, changing
the name of the corporation to THE LIVING MUSIC FOUNDATION, INC.
- July 11, 1996, the CEO inquired of the New York Department of State,
Division of Corporations, concerning the possible existence of another Living
Music Foundation because our inquiry at an address on Amsterdam Avenue in New
York City, found in an old catalog, was returned "addressee unknown."
- July 30, 1996, LIVING MUSIC Foundation received a reply from the New York
Department of State to the effect that they "have no record of an active
corporation with the name LIVING MUSIC...." and that our name would be
"distinguishable" from that of Living Music Records "as each name contains
different wording."
- In response to a February 7, 1997, letter from our attorneys, Foley, Hoag
& Eliot contacted Brown Martin Haller & McClain of San Diego to
arrive at a verbal agreement accepting the offer that Living Music Foundation
rename its recording division Living Artist Recordings. We further agree not
to challenge their use of the name Living Music in connection with phono
recordings, and they agree not to challenge our use of the name Living Music
with goods and services not related to phono recordings. Having received no
response to a letter of confirmation to be signed by a representative of LMR,
we assume the legal principle, "Silence gives consent."
