Limited Partnerships

The Attorney General has authority under Corporations Code section 15635 to intervene on behalf of limited partners who are not provided with certain specified rights by the general partner. Our intervention is generally limited to sending a "Notice of Complaint" letter to the general partner.

If you would like to complain that the general partner of your limited partnership investment has failed to provide annual financial statements for tax purposes, failed to provide a list of the names and addresses of the other limited partner investors or failed to provide other rights granted by the Corporations Code or by the limited partnership agreement, you may submit your complaint in writing to:

Office of the Attorney General
Public Inquiry Unit
P.O. Box 944255
Sacramento, CA 94244-2550.

Be sure to include on your complaint an address for the general partner and your own return address.

After review of your complaint and if appropriate, we will send our notice of complaint letter with a copy of your written complaint to the limited partnership and direct the general partner to respond both to our office and to you within 30 days. We will also send you a copy of our notice of complaint.

Many times our "Notice of Complaint" will be sufficient to prompt an otherwise recalcitrant general partner to resolve your complaint. However, you may want to discuss your problem with your own attorney.
