Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2011 in the subject Law - Comparative Legal Systems, Comparative Law, grade: A+, The University of Texas at Austin, language: English, abstract: If two or more people have decided to carry on a business together, they face the question which type of business association to choose. Since every sophisticated legal order furnishes a set of national business associations, traditionally parties, familiar with their own legal system, opted for one of those. However, the increase of cross-border commerce has broadened parties’ and their legal advisors’ perspective and has made them aware of the existence of alternative types of business associations under foreign law. At the same time, a gradual transition from the real seat theory to the incorporation theory in international company law facilitates the extraterritorial use of national business associations. Besides, the predominantly mandatory nature of business associations law in respect of external relationships with third parties can be a strong incentive to employ a foreign type of business association that differs from an otherwise comparable domestic type in a significant matter. The form of liability for the debts of a business association is such a matter of crucial importance and of mandatory nature alike. Existence and extent of this liability define the risk a member incurs by its participation. Even minor variances in this risk can affect the choice of a business association. The modern trend is to avoid personal liability as far as possible, either by choosing a corporate form, or a particular partnership form providing for limited liability. Nevertheless, it is still conceivable that the founders of a business would be willing to promote the impression of personal liability in order to attract business. This limits their choice to all kinds of internationally available “partnerships,” the concept of which, in contrast to the concept of “corporations,” is widely associated with personal liability. However, personal liability need not equal personal liability, and thus, in spite of likewise representing the general idea of personal liability, partners might consider the “partnership” of one legal order preferable to the “partnership” of another legal order. This hypothesis prompts a comparative analysis of the liability in a general partnership under UPA and RUPA and its equivalent under German law.
Download or read book Drafting General Partnership Laws on the Aggregate Or Entity Theory written by Peter Winship and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been “a matter of considerable dispute” whether partnership legislation should treat a general partnership as an entity. The dispute is about whether to draft the legislation on the “entity” theory (the partnership is a separate legal entity) or on an “aggregate” theory (the partnership is an association -- but not a legal entity -- of persons carrying on a business as co-owners). Scotland and civil law jurisdictions (including Louisiana) have long recognized the partnership as an entity. Until the late 19th century, however, partnership law in common-law jurisdictions was judge- made law, and most judges treated partnership issues on the aggregate theory. Only when these common law jurisdictions seriously considered codifying partnership rules and principles did debate about the nature of a partnership become contentious. In England there was far less debate than in the United States. This essay considers the history of the dispute in both jurisdictions.

Download or read book Handbook on the Law of Partnership Including Limited Partnerships Classic Reprint written by Eugene Allen Gilmore and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook on the Law of Partnership, Including Limited Partnerships The original arrangement with the publishers contemplated, not an entirely new treatise on the law of Partnership, but merely a new edition of Mr. William George's text on this subject. After the work was begun, however, it seemed advisable to abandon Mr. George's text for the most part, and to prepare a substantially new treatise, using such portions of his work as should be found suitable. With the exception, therefore, of Chapters VIII and IX, the present book, both in arrangement and text, is new. A few passages and a number of citations and notes have been taken from Mr. George. Chapters VIII and IX are reproduced substantially as found in Mr. George's book, with the addition of later cases. The law on the subject being reasonably well worked out in the authorities, the aim of the present author has been to make a clear and definite statement of the leading principles, in a form serviceable alike to students and practitioners. Whatever merit the book has lies in this direction, rather than in the discussion of controverted points, or the advancement of new theories. The citations, while including all the leading cases, are not exhaustive, but are sufficiently full for practical purposes. The author acknowledges his great indebtedness for valuable assistance in the task to Mr. Henry A. Hirshberg and to Mr. Oliver S. Rundell; also to Mr. Olcott O. Partridge for his preparation of the chapter on Limited Partnerships. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Theory of Legal Sentences written by Manuel Atienza and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legal statements are, according to the authors, the most basic elements of the law. Nevertheless they must be considered not only as the pieces of a puzzle, but also as the components of a dynamic and highly complex reality: the law of contemporary society. The book presents an analysis of the different types of legal statements (mandatory rules, principles, power-conferring rules, definitions, permissions, values and the rule of recognition) from a threeefold perspective, that is, considering their logical structure, their function in legal reasoning as reasons for action, and their connections with the interests and power relationships among the individuals and the social groups. The result is conceived as a first step in the building of a general theory of law designed not as an isolated discourse but as a decisive element for the dynamization of the legal culture.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tentative Drafts of an Act to Make Uniform the Law of Partnership The result of our work on draft A is presented in draft B printed on page 7 infra, which is a Partnership Act drawn on the theory that a partnership is a legal entity or person distinct from the legal personalities of the several partners. While working on draft B the number and radical nature of the alterations in existing law made necessary by the adop tion of the entity theory impressed us with the desirability of also drafting an Act which would be based on the aggregate theory, so that your Committee might be in a position to compare the results of the adoption of the theory underlying most of the present case law with those resulting from that advocated by Mr. Ames. The result of this endeavor is presented in draft C, printed on page 36 infra. It so happened that the final polishing of draft C was completed before the last revision of draft B. This will explain why, where both drafts are identical, and yet differ from the last draft submitted by Mr. Ames, or from the English Act, the ex planations of the changes are in the notes under draft C.

Download or read book Corporate Law and the Theory of the Firm written by Wm. Dennis Huber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dozens of judicial opinions have held that shareholders own corporations, that directors are agents of shareholders, and even that directors are trustees of shareholders’ property. Yet, until now, it has never been proven. These doctrines rest on unsubstantiated assumptions. In this book the author performs a rigorous, systematic analysis of common law, contract law, property law, agency law, partnership law, trust law, and corporate statutory law using judicial rulings that prove shareholders do not own corporations, that there is no separation of ownership and control, directors are not agents of shareholders, and shareholders are not investors in corporations. Furthermore, the author proves the theory of the firm, which is founded on the separation of ownership and control and directors as agents of shareholders, promotes an agenda that wilfully ignores fundamental property law and agency law. However, since shareholders do not own the corporation, and directors are not agents of shareholders, the theory of the firm collapses. The book corrects decades of confusion and misguided research in corporate law and the economic theory of the firm and will allow readers to understand how property law, agency law, and economics contradict each other when applied to corporate law. It will appeal to researchers and upper-level and graduate students in economics, finance, accounting, law, and sociology, as well as attorneys and accountants.
