In English Law (and as a result, throughout the Commonwealth Realms), body corporate is the legal term for a corporation. It is distinct from a natural person, although it has many of the same legal rights. A body corporate can be either a corporation sole (consisting of a single person) or a corporation aggregate (consisting of two or more persons). The British Crown is an example of a corporation sole, whereas J Sainsbury plc is an example of a corporation aggregate.
