[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. Can Rufus and Sven change the partnership agreement if Igor votes against doing so?

[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?
