A Limited
Partnership Must Be Represented by an Attorney
Barring minor exceptions, an
example being small claims court, neither a corporation nor an LLC may
represent itself in court.
In a case from earlier this
year out of New Jersey, it was confirmed that the same rule is applicable to a
limited partnership. In this case, the general partner, who alleged that the
claims of limited partnership were assigned to himself, was still found to be
unable to represent the limited partnership. Rather, it needed to be
represented by legal counsel. Goldstein v.
Roxborough Real Estate, LLC, Civ. Act. No: 15-CV-3835 (PGS) (DEA), 2018 WL
504398 (D.N.J. Jan. 22, 2018).
