Code of the District of Columbia

§ 29–606.03. Effect of partner’s dissociation.

(a) If a partner’s dissociation results in a dissolution and winding up of the partnership business, subchapter VIII of this chapter shall apply; otherwise, subchapter VII of this chapter applies.

(b) Upon a partner’s dissociation:

(1) The partner’s right to participate in the management and conduct of the partnership business terminates, except as otherwise provided in § 29-608.03;

(2) The partner’s duty of loyalty under § 29-604.04(b)(3) terminates; and

(3) The partner’s duty of loyalty under § 29-604.04(b)(1) and (2) and duty of care under § 29-604.04(c) continue only with regard to matters arising and events occurring before the partner’s dissociation, unless the partner participates in winding up the partnership’s business pursuant to § 29-608.03.

(c) A person’s dissociation alone does not discharge the person from a debt, obligation, or other liability to the partnership or to the other partners which the person incurred while a partner.
