Right to an account
Known as the North Carolina Uniform Partnership Act
The act spans §§ 59–59 (46 sections).
Applied in 8 court decisions — leading case 147 N.C. App. 39 - Lewis v. Edwards (2001)
Most recently applied in Dishner v. Goneau (January 2017)
1941, c. 374, s. 22.
Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.
Any partner shall have the right to a formal account as to partnership affairs:
(1) If he is wrongfully excluded from the partnership business or possession of its property by his copartners,
(2) If the right exists under the terms of any agreement,
(3) As provided by G.S. 59-51,
(4) Whenever other circumstances render it just and reasonable.
