Reverse veil piercing is not an obscure form of body art but an obscure legal doctrine related to corporate law. Stephen Bainbridge of the UCLA School of Law wrote an article called “Using Reverse Veil Piercing to Vindicate the Free Exercise Rights of Incorporated Employers,” which can be downloaded at http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2229414. Assuming that you are not a corporate law attorney, why should you care? Because this is potentially an important argument in the debate over whether the HHS mandate to provide contraceptive and abortifacient services should apply to employers who have religious objections.
