§ 323A.0704 — Statement of Dissociation

Plain-Language Summary

A departing partner or the partnership can file a statement of dissociation with the Secretary of State. This public filing states that the partner has left the partnership. Once filed, it limits the former partner's authority and provides notice to third parties. For real property transfers, a certified copy should be recorded with the county recorder.

Practical Notes
Filing a statement of dissociation is an important step when a partner leaves. It provides public notice that the person is no longer a partner, which protects both the departing partner and the partnership from unauthorized transactions. File it promptly with the Secretary of State and record it if real property is involved.
