Nevada Revised Statutes 87.100 – Conveyance of real property of partnership
1. Where title to real property is in the partnership name, any partner may convey title to such property by a conveyance signed in the partnership name, but the partnership may recover such property unless the partner’s act binds the partnership under the provisions of subsection 1 of NRS 87.090 or unless such property has been conveyed by the grantee or a person claiming through such grantee to a holder for value without knowledge that the partner, in making the conveyance, has exceeded his or her authority.
Terms Used In Nevada Revised Statutes 87.100
- Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
- Partnership: A voluntary contract between two or more persons to pool some or all of their assets into a business, with the agreement that there will be a proportional sharing of profits and losses.
- person: means a natural person, any form of business or social organization and any other nongovernmental legal entity including, but not limited to, a corporation, partnership, association, trust or unincorporated organization. See Nevada Revised Statutes 0.039
- Real property: Land, and all immovable fixtures erected on, growing on, or affixed to the land.
2. Where title to real property is in the name of the partnership, a conveyance signed by a partner, in his or her own name, passes the equitable interest of the partnership, provided the act is one within the authority of the partner under the provisions of subsection 1 of NRS 87.090.
3. Where title to real property is in the name of one or more but not all the partners, and the record does not disclose the right of the partnership, the partners in whose name the title stands may convey title to such property, but the partnership may recover such property if the partners’ act does not bind the partnership under the provisions of subsection 1 of NRS 87.090, unless the purchaser, or his or her assignee, is a holder for value without knowledge.
4. Where the title to real property is in the name of one or more or all the partners, or in a third person in trust for the partnership, a conveyance signed by a partner in the partnership name, or in his or her own name, passes the equitable interest of the partnership, provided the act is one within the authority of the partner under the provisions of subsection 1 of NRS 87.090.
5. Where the title to real property is in the names of all the partners a conveyance signed by all the partners passes all their rights in such property.
