Subchapter 8: WINDING UP PARTNERSHIP BUSINESS
§1083

§1082. Partnership continues after dissolution

1.  Continuation for purpose of winding up.  Subject to subsection 2, a partnership continues after dissolution only for the purpose of winding up its business. The partnership is terminated when the winding up of its business is completed.  
[PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).]
2.  Waiver of right to wind up business; terminate partnership.  At any time after the dissolution of a partnership and before the winding up of its business is completed, all of the partners, including any dissociating partner other than a wrongfully dissociating partner, may waive the right to have the partnership's business wound up and the partnership terminated. In that event:  
A. The partnership resumes carrying on its business as if dissolution had never occurred, and any liability incurred by the partnership or a partner after the dissolution and before the waiver is determined as if dissolution had never occurred; and   [PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).]
B. The rights of a 3rd party accruing under section 1084, subsection 1 or arising out of conduct in reliance on the dissolution before the 3rd party knew or received a notification of the waiver may not be adversely affected.   [PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).]
[PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. A, §2 (NEW).]
