§ 16910 Partnership And Business Mergers
This law says which kinds of partnerships and other businesses can join together to become one business, and what rules they must follow when the businesses are from other states or countries.
Two small law firms that are organized as partnerships want to combine into one larger partnership, and a tech startup that is a corporation wants to merge with a partnership to become a corporation.
The two law firms can merge because the law allows partnerships to merge with other partnerships. The tech startup can merge with the partnership as long as the state where the corporation is formed says it can do a merger, and if the partnership is the one that stays alive, the foreign corporation’s home state must also allow that kind of merger.
