Back in the partnership era (2007 to 2010), Rule 2145 at one point
included:
A binding agreement governed by the rules which devolves its
legal obligations onto a subset of its parties, numbering at
least two, collectively, is a partnership. The members of a
partnership are those parties onto whom the partnership's legal
obligations are collectively devolved.
and:
A partnership whose basis contains at least two persons is a
person.
and one partnership included these clauses:
3. The AFO may incur obligations, rights, and privileges under the
Rules of Agora. The Partners may act on behalf of the AFO to satisfy
such obligations and to exercise such rights and privileges, as
permitted by this agreement.
5. The Partners shall ensure that the AFO obeys the Rules of Agora to
the maximum possible extent.
but never specified which partner was on the hook in any specific
situation. (Presumably causing the AFO to perform an illegal action
would ding the partner who acted on its behalf to do so, but what about
illegally failing to act as required?) As I recall, this contributed
substantially to just repealing partnerships and legislating the
non-personhood of contracts.
