Lyu and Rabbit have categorically failed to address any of the concerns I have. They were given ample time to respond, and chose to do so quickly — less than 12 hours later, despite being given several days — and chose to do so in a way that I deem insufficient given the serious nature of my questions, including the fact that the current status of Rabbit Inc with California's Secretary of State is "Forfeited" as of April 2, 2024,
meaning that the business entity in question has failed to meet its tax requirements.
According to the
California Franchise Tax Board, "when your business has been suspended or forfeited, it is not in good standing and loses its rights, powers, and privileges to do business in California." Though I am not a tax attorney or an accountant, nor do I have any insight beyond what's publicly available, this highly suggests that Rabbit Inc cannot currently do business in the State of California, where it is headquartered.
Here is a full printout of the Secretary of State's website that shows Rabbit's current status, including its name change from Cyber Manufacture Co.
Though there is a chance that Rabbit Inc. could have another, unnamed corporate entity, the one I am referring to here has the same CTO (Carol Koh Evans), the same COO (Justin Oren), and documents are signed by "Cheng Lyu," also known as Jesse Lyu. Again, if there is any mistake in what I've written here, I have given Rabbit Inc. the opportunity to address it, and it has chosen not to.
Rabbit's corporate status, including its "forfeited" status,
were part of the questions I sent to the company, and it chose not to respond to them.
