SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Limited partnerships and partnerships. Prohibits the transaction of business as a limited partnership unless the business is a Virginia limited partnership or a foreign limited partnership registered to transact business in Virginia. The measure includes numerous technical amendments that ensure that terminology in the Virginia Limited Partnership Act and Partnership Act conforms to provisions of other Virginia business entity laws. Other provisions centralize and expand the delayed effective date provisions for Virginia limited partnership organizational documents; move the provisions for the conversion of a partnership to a limited partnership to the Limited Partnership Act; amend the filing fees for limited partnership and registered limited liability partnership amendments and cancellations; and transfer responsibility for the filing of amended and restated certificates of limited partnership in circuit court from the Commission to the limited partnership.
