(a)Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b), the law of the jurisdiction in which a partnership has its chief executive office governs relations among the partners and between the partners and the partnership.
(b)The law of this State governs relations among the partners, and between the partners and the partnership, and the liability of partners for an obligation of a limited liability partnership. [L 1999, c 284, pt of §1; am L 2000, c 218, §5; am L 2004, c 121, §29]
Case Notes
Partnership did not exist as a matter of law where plaintiff and defendant did not have an agreement to share profits; a $1.5 million release fee was interest on a loan and the loan commitment and accompanying letter did not evince an intent by the parties to share profits inasmuch as they lacked any language commonly utilized in partnership agreements, such as "partnership", "partner", "profits", and did not intimate any community of interest, or co-ownership, or sharing of profits, tending to show the relationship of partners. 111 H. 286, 141 P.3d 459 (2006).
