Re: business partner problem

General partners are jointly liable

for the acts of the partnership but if your partner acted without the knowledge of the partnership, behind your back, and did this personally, not for the partnership, it would be an ultra vires act, beyond the scope of the business relationship.

If he used the moey for a partnership debt you might have some liabilty.
