[Partnership Agreement] Rufus, Sven, and Igor are partners in a Health Club. They executed a partnership agreement ten years ago. Rufus and Sven want to grow the company and approach Igor with their ideas. First, they want to add two partners into the partnership who have extensive capital. Second, they want to move the club into a new direction, by adding a restaurant and a casino. Third, they want to purchase new exercise equipment from SportsCo. Igor doesn’t want to add new partners and despises the idea of adding the restaurant and casino. Igor agrees that new equipment is needed, but insists they continue to purchase equipment from HealthCo. Rufus and Sven tell Igor, that he’s outvoted and also tell him they want to revise the partnership agreement’s provision regarding mandatory retirement.

[Car Repair] Gordon and Leo are partners in SafeT Car, a full service automotive repair company. Leo does nearly all of the day-to-day work as Gordon is thinking about retiring. When Leo was moving a customer’s car last week, he accidentally collided with the garage door, and the door had to be replaced at a cost of $6,000. Leo recently met with BigBox stores about a potential deal by which BigBox would set up a SafeT Car shop in every BigBox store nationwide. Leo signed an agreement to open a “test” store in one BigBox store. Leo hasn’t told Gordon yet, because Gordon hasn’t been in the office in a month. Gordon opens The Oil Place, an express oil change company, which he plans to have his sons operate in his retirement. When Leo learns about The Oil Place, he threatens to sue Gordon for breach of duty because Leo is sick of doing all the work at SafeT Car while Gordon was apparently opening a competing business. Gordon tells Leo that he hasn’t breached any duty and they don’t have a written agreement that restricts Gordon from opening his own store with his sons. Gordon also tells Leo that the $6,000 for the damaged door is coming out of Leo’s pocket. Leo, who’s thinking about the potential deal about BigBox, tells Gordon he wants to split up the partnership. Did Gordon breach any duty by opening his own oil change store?

[Partnership Problems] Jamar, Kenya, and Tamika want to form a partnership to sell students resume preparation and employment search services. Jamar asks Kenya and Tamika if they should draw up some sort of agreement. Kenya replies that a written agreement is not legally required and that an oral agreement will set up a partnership. Upon the urging of Jamar and Tamika, however, Kenya agreed to a written document setting up the partnership, which they all signed. It was a simple agreement listing the partners and did not specifically address the right to management or allocation of profits and losses. Kenya has an opportunity to assist some students with resumes and does so without revealing her employment to the partnership; she keeps the payment she receives for herself. When Jamar and Tamika find out, Kenya replies that she was doing two-thirds of the partnership work, particularly in regard to management; that she, therefore, has two-thirds of the voting rights; and that she voted that her actions were appropriate. The articles of partnership does not address the right to share in management, but Jamar and Tamika strongly disagree with Kenya. Did Kenya commit any breach of duty to the partnership?

[Shaky Bicycles] Lena is an incorporator who filed the articles of incorporation for XYZ Corporation, a corporation set up to sell bicycles. Lena incorrectly put the wrong street address in the document. Preetha, a manufacturer of bicycle parts, had sold a number of parts to XYZ Corporation. Unfortunately, the corporation was not making any profit, and Preetha was not paid in a timely manner. She checked the status of the corporation and discovered Lena’s error. Preetha then claimed that the shareholders of XYZ Corporation were personally liable to her. Amy, another creditor of XYZ Corporation, also claimed that a shareholder, Rick, was personally liable to her. Amy alleged that Rick committed fraud against her when he told her that XYZ Corporation was making large amounts of money, that if she would only loan $50,000 to the corporation he would marry her, and that the corporation would make so much money that she would be wealthy in six months. She loaned the funds, but the corporation has been unable to pay her. Rick told her that he is sorry, but that her only avenue of recovery is through the corporation. Preetha’s attempt to hold the shareholders primarily liable for her debt is likely to have what result?
