Abstract.Given a $(\ell +1)$-ple of matrices $(A_{\ell -1},\hdots ,A_{0},B)$ representing $\ell$-order time-invariant linear systems, $x^{(\ell )}=A_{\ell -1}x^{(\ell
-1)}+\hdots +A_{0}x^{(0)}+Bu$, we analyze conditions in such a way that changing the control $u$ by $u_{1}=u-F_{\ell}x^{(\ell)}- \ldots
F_{0}x^{(0)}$ the system obtained has a stable solution.
