Summary
Nuncupative wills, or oral wills, are not widely recognized across most states, including New York, where they are subject to strict conditions. In partnerships, dissociation typically leads to a buyout of the departing partners interest, while the partnership continues its business. Corporate management is generally the responsibility of the board of directors, not shareholders or officers. Escheat involves unclaimed property reverting to the state. A corporation from another state is considered a foreign corporation in New York. A tender offer is a public proposal to acquire a controlling interest in another company. Trade fixtures, like a walk-in cooler, can be removed at lease end. LLC members have limited liability similar to corporate shareholders. Assigning partnership interest transfers economic rights but not management rights. Partnerships are taxed as pass-through entities.Full Conversation
