Alabama § 10A-9A-8.06 - Known Claims Against Dissolved Limited Partnership.

§ 10A-9A-8.06. Known Claims Against Dissolved Limited Partnership.

(a) A dissolved limited partnership may dispose of any known claims against it by following the procedures described in subsection (b) at any time after the effective date of the dissolution of the limited partnership.

(b) A dissolved limited partnership may give notice of the dissolution in a record to the holder of any known claim. The notice must:

(1) identify the dissolved limited partnership;

(2) describe the information required to be included in a claim;

(3) provide a mailing address to which the claim is to be sent;

(4) state the deadline, which may not be fewer than 120 days from the effective date of the notice, by which the dissolved partnership must receive the claim;

(5) state that if not sooner barred, the claim will be barred if not received by the deadline; and

(6) unless the limited partnership has been throughout its existence a limited liability limited partnership, state that the barring of a claim against the limited partnership will also bar any corresponding claim against any general partner or person dissociated as a general partner which is based on Section 10A-9A-4.04.

(c) Unless sooner barred by any other statute limiting actions, a claim against a dissolved limited partnership is barred:

(1) if a claimant who was given notice under subsection (b) does not deliver the claim to the dissolved limited partnership by the deadline; or

(2) if a claimant whose claim was rejected by the dissolved limited partnership, does not commence a proceeding to enforce the claim within 90 days from the effective date of the rejection notice.

(d) For purposes of this section, “known claim” or “claim” includes unliquidated claims, but does not include a contingent liability that has not matured so that there is no immediate right to bring suit or a claim based on an event occurring after the effective date of dissolution.

(e) Nothing in this section shall be deemed to extend any otherwise applicable statute of limitations.
