Current through Chapter 253 of the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 425E-607 - Liability to other persons of person dissociated as a general partner
(a) A person's dissociation as a general partner shall not of itself discharge the person's liability as a general partner for an obligation of the limited partnership incurred before dissociation. Except as otherwise provided in subsections (b) and (c), the person shall not be liable for a limited partnership's obligation incurred after dissociation.
(b) A person whose dissociation as a general partner resulted in a dissolution and winding up of the limited partnership's activities shall be liable to the same extent as a general partner under section 425E-404 on an obligation incurred by the limited partnership under section 425E-804.
(c) A person that has dissociated as a general partner but whose dissociation did not result in a dissolution and winding up of the limited partnership's activities shall be liable on a transaction entered into by the limited partnership after the dissociation only if:
(1) A general partner would be liable on the transaction; and
(2) At the time the other party enters into the transaction:
(A) Less than two years has passed since the dissociation; and
(B) The other party does not have notice of the dissociation and reasonably believes that the person is a general partner.
(d) By agreement with a creditor of a limited partnership and the limited partnership, a person dissociated as a general partner may be released from liability for an obligation of the limited partnership.
(e) A person dissociated as a general partner shall be released from liability for an obligation of the limited partnership if the limited partnership's creditor, with notice of the person's dissociation as a general partner but without the person's consent, agrees to a material alteration in the nature or time of payment of the obligation.
