...selling something that does not exist is what the "futures market" is built on. They sell corn, wheat, and pigs that don't exist on a regular basis. Keeping attorneys on "retainer" is paying for a crime that ya haven't been caught for yet, and that box of chocolate or bottle of wine is doubtlessly payment for favors not yet received but eagerly anticipated.

I can see why shorting a stock can be . . .

But I absolutely can not see how a 'naked short'
could possibly be legal. One is NOT allowed to
'sell' something that does not exist are they?
