MS Code § 79-13-1103 (2020)
2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 13 - Uniform Partnership Act (1997)|Article 11 - Foreign Limited Liability Partnership|§ 79-13-1103. Effect of failure to qualify

 A foreign limited liability partnership transacting business in this state may not maintain an action or proceeding in this state unless it has in effect a statement of foreign qualification.   The failure of a foreign limited liability partnership to have in effect a statement of foreign qualification does not impair the validity of a contract or act of the foreign limited liability partnership or preclude it from defending an action or proceeding in this state.   A limitation on personal liability of a partner is not waived solely by transacting business in this state without a statement of foreign qualification.   If a foreign limited liability partnership transacts business in this state without a statement of foreign qualification, the Secretary of State is its agent for service of process with respect to a right of action arising out of the transaction of business in this state.
MS Code § 79-13-1104 (2020)
2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 13 - Uniform Partnership Act (1997)|Article 11 - Foreign Limited Liability Partnership|§ 79-13-1104. Activities not constituting transacting business

 Activities of a foreign limited liability partnership which do not constitute transacting business for the purpose of this article include:    Maintaining, defending, or settling an action or proceeding;   Holding meetings of its partners or carrying on any other activity concerning its internal affairs;   Maintaining bank accounts;   Maintaining offices or agencies for the transfer, exchange, and registration of the partnership's own securities or maintaining trustees or depositories with respect to those securities;   Selling through independent contractors;   Soliciting or obtaining orders, whether by mail or through employees or agents or otherwise, if the orders require acceptance outside this state before they become contracts;   Creating or acquiring indebtedness, with or without a mortgage, or other security interest in property;   Collecting debts or foreclosing mortgages or other security interests in property securing the debts, and holding, protecting, and maintaining property so acquired;   Conducting an isolated transaction that is completed within thirty (30) days and is not one in the course of similar transactions; and   Transacting business in interstate commerce.    For purposes of this article, the ownership in this state of income-producing real property or tangible personal property, other than property excluded under subsection (a), constitutes transacting business in this state.   This section does not apply in determining the contacts or activities that may subject a foreign limited liability partnership to service of process, taxation, or regulation under any other law of this state.

2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 13 - Uniform Partnership Act (1997)|Article 11 - Foreign Limited Liability Partnership|§ 79-13-1106. Administrative revocation of statement of foreign qualification; grounds

 The Secretary of State may commence a proceeding under Section 79-13-1107 to revoke the statement of foreign qualification of a foreign limited liability partnership authorized to transact business in this state if:    [Reserved]   The foreign limited liability partnership does not pay within sixty (60) days after they are due any fees, taxes, or penalties imposed by this chapter or other law;   The foreign limited partnership is without a registered agent in this state for sixty (60) days or more;   The foreign limited liability partnership does not notify the Secretary of State within sixty (60) days that its registered agent has been changed or that its registered agent has resigned;   The Secretary of State receives a duly authenticated certificate from the Secretary of State or other public official having custody of corporate records in the state or country under whose law the foreign limited liability partnership is organized stating that it has been dissolved or disappeared as the result of a merger; or   A misrepresentation has been made of any material matter in any application, report, affidavit, or other record submitted by the foreign limited liability partnership pursuant to this chapter.    The Secretary of State may not revoke a statement of foreign qualification of a foreign limited liability partnership unless the Secretary of State sends the foreign limited liability partnership notice of the revocation at least sixty (60) days before its effective date, by a record addressed to its registered agent, or to the foreign limited liability partnership if the foreign limited liability partnership fails to appoint and maintain a proper agent in this state. The notice must specify the cause for the revocation of the registration. The authority of the foreign limited liability partnership to transact business in this state ceases on the effective date of the revocation unless the foreign limited liability partnership cures the failure before that date.

2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 13 - Uniform Partnership Act (1997)|Article 11 - Foreign Limited Liability Partnership|§ 79-13-1107. Administrative revocation of statement of foreign qualification; procedure

 If the Secretary of State determines that one or more grounds exist under Section 79-13-1106 for revocation of a statement of foreign qualification, he shall serve the foreign limited liability partnership with written notice of his determination, except that such determination may be served by first-class mail.   If the foreign limited liability partnership does not correct each ground for revocation or demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Secretary of State that each ground determined by the Secretary of State does not exist within sixty (60) days after service of the notice is perfected, the Secretary of State may revoke the foreign limited liability partnership's statement of foreign qualification by signing a certificate of revocation that recites the ground or grounds for revocation and its effective date. The Secretary of State shall file the original of the certificate and serve a copy on the foreign limited liability partnership, except that such certificate may be served by first-class mail.   The authority of a foreign limited liability partnership to transact business in this state ceases on the date shown on the certificate revoking its registration.   The Secretary of State's revocation of a foreign limited liability partnership's registration appoints the Secretary of State the foreign limited liability partnership's agent for service of process in any proceeding based on a cause of action which arose during the time the foreign limited liability partnership was authorized to transact business in this state. Service of process on the Secretary of State under this subsection is service on the foreign limited liability partnership. Upon receipt of process, the Secretary of State shall mail a copy of the process to the foreign limited liability partnership at its principal office shown in its most recent communication received from the foreign limited liability partnership stating the current mailing address of its principal office, or, if none are on file, in its application for a registration.   Revocation of a foreign limited liability partnership's statement of foreign qualification does not terminate the authority of the registered agent of the foreign limited liability partnership.

2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 13 - Uniform Partnership Act (1997)|Article 11 - Foreign Limited Liability Partnership|§ 79-13-1108. Administrative revocation of statement of foreign qualification; reinstatement

 A foreign limited liability partnership whose statement of foreign qualification is administratively revoked under Section 79-13-1107 may apply to the Secretary of State for reinstatementat any time after the effective date of such revocation. The application must:    Recite the name of the limited liability partnership and the effective date of the administrative revocation;   State that the ground or grounds for revocation either did not exist or have been eliminated;   State that the limited liability partnership's name satisfies the requirements of Section 79-13-1002; and   Contain a certificate from the Mississippi Department of Revenue reciting that the limited liability partnership has properly filed all reports and paid all taxes and penalties required by revenue laws of this state.    If the Secretary of State determines that the application contains the information required by subsection (a) of this section and that the information is correct, he shall reinstate the registration, prepare a certificate that recites his determination and the effective date of reinstatement, file the original of the certificate, and serve a copy on the limited liability partnership.   When the reinstatement is effective:   The reinstatement relates back to and takes effect as of the effective date of the administrative revocation;   Any liability incurred by a member after the administrative revocation and before the reinstatement shall be determined as if the administrative revocation had never occurred; and   The limited liability partnership may resume its business as if the administrative revocation had never occurred.

2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 13 - Uniform Partnership Act (1997)|Article 11 - Foreign Limited Liability Partnership|§ 79-13-1109. Appeal from denial of reinstatement

 If the Secretary of State denies a foreign limited liability partnership's application for reinstatement of the statement of foreign qualification following administrative revocation, he shall serve the limited liability partnership with a written communication that explains the reason or reasons for denial.   The limited liability partnership may appeal the denial of reinstatement to the Chancery Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County or the chancery court of the county where the limited liability partnership is domiciled within thirty (30) days after service of the communication of denial is perfected. The limited liability partnership appeals by petitioning the court to set aside the revocation and attaching to the petition copies of the Secretary of State's communication of denial.   The court may summarily order the Secretary of State to reinstate the registration of the limited liability partnership or may take other action the court considers appropriate.   The court's final decision may be appealed as in other civil proceedings.

2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 14 - Mississippi Uniform Limited Partnership Act|Article 1 - General Provisions|§ 79-14-103. Knowledge; notice

 A person knows a fact if the person:    Has actual knowledge of it; or   Is deemed to know it under law other than this chapter.    A person has notice of a fact if the person:   Has reason to know the fact from all the facts known to the person at the time in question; or   Is deemed to have notice of the fact under subsection (c) or (d).   A certificate of limited partnership on file in the office of the Secretary of State is notice that the partnership is a limited partnership and the persons designated in the certificate as general partners are general partners. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (d), the certificate is not notice of any other fact.   A person not a partner is deemed to have notice of:   Another person's dissociation as a general partner, ninety (90) days after an amendment to the certificate of limited partnership which states that the other person has dissociated becomes effective, or ninety (90) days after a statement of dissociation pertaining to the other person becomes effective, whichever occurs first;   A limited partnership's:   Dissolution, ninety (90) days after the statement of dissolution becomes effective;   Participation in a conversion or domestication under the Mississippi Entity Conversion and Domestication Act, ninety (90) days after the effective date of statement of conversion or domestication.   Participation in a merger under Article 11, ninety (90) days after the effective date of the articles of merger.   Subject to Section 79-14-210(f), a person notifies another person of a fact by taking steps reasonably required to inform the other person in ordinary course, whether or not those steps cause the other person to know the fact.   A general partner's knowledge or notice of a fact relating to the limited partnership is effective immediately as knowledge of or notice to the partnership, except in the case of a fraud on the partnership committed by or with the consent of the general partner. A limited partner's knowledge or notice of a fact relating to the partnership is not effective as knowledge of or notice to the partnership.

 A limited partnership is bound by and may enforce the partnership agreement, whether or not the partnership has itself manifested assent to the agreement.

2020 Mississippi Code|Title 79 - Corporations, Associations, and Partnerships|Chapter 14 - Mississippi Uniform Limited Partnership Act|Article 1 - General Provisions|§ 79-14-107. Partnership agreement; effect on third parties and relationship to records effective on behalf of limited partnership

 A partnership agreement may specify that its amendment requires the approval of a person that is not a party to the agreement or the satisfaction of a condition. An amendment is ineffective if its adoption does not include the required approval or satisfy the specified condition.   The obligations of a limited partnership and its partners to a person in the person's capacity as a transferee or person dissociated as a partner are governed by the partnership agreement. Subject only to a court order issued under Section 79-14-703(b)(2) to effectuate a charging order, an amendment to the partnership agreement made after a person becomes a transferee or is dissociated as a partner:    Is effective with regard to any debt, obligation, or other liability of the partnership or its partners to the person in the person's capacity as a transferee or person dissociated as a partner; and   Is not effective to the extent the amendment imposes a new debt, obligation, or other liability on the transferee or person dissociated as a partner.    If a record delivered by a limited partnership to the Secretary of State for filing becomes effective and contains a provision that would be ineffective under Section 79-14-105(c) or (d)(2) if contained in the partnership agreement, the provision is ineffective in the record.   Subject to subsection (c), if a record delivered by a limited partnership to the Secretary of State for filing becomes effective and conflicts with a provision of the partnership agreement:   The agreement prevails as to partners, persons dissociated as partners, and transferees; and   The record prevails as to other persons to the extent they reasonably rely on the record.
