238A. Administration of Partnership Interest by Personal Representative
If the decedent was a partner in a general partnership and the articles of partnership provide that, on the death of a partner, his or her executor or other personal representative shall be entitled to the place of the deceased partner in the firm, the executor or other personal representative so contracting to come into the partnership shall, to the extent allowed by law, be liable to third persons only to the extent of the deceased partner's capital in the partnership and the estate's assets held by the executor or other personal representative. This section does not exonerate an executor or other personal representative from liability for his or her negligence.
