Uniform Partnership Act
Alaska · Partnership · §§ 32.06.201 to 32.06.997 · 62 sections
Overview
The act governs the formation, internal operation, and eventual dissolution of general partnerships, treating the partnership as an entity that can own and transfer property, sue and be sued, and act through its partners as agents. It supplies default rules for the relationship among partners — fiduciary duties, access to books and records, distributions, and what a partner owns and may transfer — while setting the terms on which the partnership and its individual partners become liable to outsiders, including creditors who reach a partner's transferable interest by court order. It also establishes filing mechanisms through which authority, its denial, a partner's departure, and dissolution can be made a matter of public record, and it defines when a partner's dissociation triggers a buyout rather than the end of the business, along with the process for winding up and settling accounts when the partnership does terminate.
