Sec. 780. ADMINISTRATION OF PARTNERSHIP INTEREST BY GUARDIAN    


Latest version.
  • If the ward was a partner in a general partnership and the articles of partnership provide that, on the incapacity of a partner, the guardian of the estate of the partner is entitled to the place of the incapacitated partner in the firm, the guardian who contracts to come into the partnership shall, to the extent allowed by law, be liable to a third person only to the extent of the incapacitated partner's capital in the partnership and the assets of the estate of the partner that are held by the guardian. This section does not exonerate a guardian from liability for the negligence of the guardian.
