Rupa And Former Partners: Cutting The Gordian Knot With Continuing Partnership Entities, Robert W. Hillman Apr 1995

Rupa And Former Partners: Cutting The Gordian Knot With Continuing Partnership Entities, Robert W. Hillman

Law and Contemporary Problems

Passage of the Revised Uniform Partnership Act (RUPA) brought change in the treatment of partnerships as entities rather than aggregates of their members. The nature of the Gordian knot that binds individuals associated in partnership and the lingering ties between individuals formerly associated in partnership are examined, and the hidden costs of continuity that RUPA imposes on withdrawing partners are evaluated.

Linking Statutory Forms, Larry E. Ribstein Apr 1995

Linking Statutory Forms, Larry E. Ribstein

Law and Contemporary Problems

Business association statutes may be "linked" in that rules from one statute are applied to a business form created under another statute; for example, the Uniform Partnership Act, the Uniform Limited Partnership Act and the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act provide that general partnership provisions apply to limited partnerships. An evaluation of this linkage is presented.


Fiduciary Duties And Rupa: An Inquiry Into Freedom Of Contract, J. Dennis Hynes Apr 1995

Fiduciary Duties And Rupa: An Inquiry Into Freedom Of Contract, J. Dennis Hynes

Law and Contemporary Problems

The Revised Uniform Partnership Act of 1994 (RUPA) section 404 establishes a comprehensive definition of partnership fiduciary duties and includes an express recognition of the unique position of a partner. The approach taken by RUPA endorses too great an invasion of the principle of freedom of contract among partners, and a change in the language of RUPA is proposed with the goal of expanding freedom of contract without abandoning the requirement of good faith.


Love It Or Leave It: Property Rules, Liability Rules, And Exclusivity Of Remedies In Partnership And Marriage, Saul Levmore Apr 1995

Love It Or Leave It: Property Rules, Liability Rules, And Exclusivity Of Remedies In Partnership And Marriage, Saul Levmore

Law and Contemporary Problems

A claim for "final accounting" as a partner's exclusive remedy is a traditional rule in partnership law, but this rule can be unfair and inefficient. The evolution of the rules of partnership law away from the love-it-or-leave-it, or "exclusivity," tradition is discussed, and traditional partnership law is compared to domestic relations and to corporate law.


Our Partners’ Keepers? Agency Dimensions Of Partnership Relationships, Deborah A. Demott Apr 1995

Our Partners’ Keepers? Agency Dimensions Of Partnership Relationships, Deborah A. Demott

Law and Contemporary Problems

Many distinctive consequences of the relationship among partners stem from applicable norms of agency law, but basic agency norms applicable to incorporated businesses are fundamentally different. Agency doctrines that are distinctive to the partnership context are examined, and their consequences and rationales are explored.


Advancing The Search For Compromise: A Response To Professor Hynes, Allan W. Vestal Apr 1995

Advancing The Search For Compromise: A Response To Professor Hynes, Allan W. Vestal

Law and Contemporary Problems

The contractarian and fiduciary-based positions of the Revised Uniform Partnership Act (RUPA) and the observation that RUPA is internally contradictory and does not consistently adopt either position are discussed. Professor Hynes' discussion of the waivability of fiduciary duties under RUPA is critiqued.

Rupa And Fiduciary Duty: The Texture Of Relationship, Donald J. Weidner
