Legal Definitions - shadow stock plan

A shadow stock plan is when a company gives its employees pretend stocks that they can't actually sell or buy. It's like a game where the employees get to pretend they own part of the company, but they don't actually get any real money from it. A shakedown is when someone tries to get money from another person by threatening them with violence or arrest. A search is when the police look for evidence of a crime by looking at a person's things or body. Sometimes they need a warrant to do this, but sometimes they can do it without one if there's an emergency or if they're arresting someone. There are different types of searches, like a strip search where they look for hidden things on a person's body, or an inventory search where they look at everything a person has when they're arrested.
