§521. Construction and application of chapter

1. Promote uniformity. This chapter must be so applied and construed to effectuate its general purpose to promote uniformity of the law with respect to the subject of this chapter among states enacting the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. [1991, c. 552, §2 (new); §4 (aff).]


2. Not strictly construed. The rule that statutes in derogation of the common law are to be strictly construed has no application to this chapter. [1991, c. 552, §2 (new); §4 (aff).]


3. Applicability of other laws. If the purpose for which a limited partnership is organized or its form makes it subject to a special provision of law, the limited partnership shall also comply with that provision. This chapter does not apply to any class of limited partnerships to the extent that any provision of any other public law is specifically applicable to that class and is inconsistent with any provision of this chapter, in which case such other provision prevails. [1999, c. 638, §15 (new).]
