Field definitions

Exclusive Remedy: LP-native charging-order classification for whether the limited-partnership charging-order remedy is the exclusive creditor remedy stated by the source.
Foreclosure Available: LP-native charging-order classification for whether foreclosure is available, barred, or statute-silent in the source chain.
Case Law Status: LP-native status for whether case law was located for the limited-partnership charging-order question.
Debtor Role: LP-native classification for whether the charging-order record covers a general-partner interest, limited-partner interest, or both.
Statute Cite: Limited-partnership charging-order statute citation or typed source-bound citation statement.
General Partner Name Public At Formation: Whether the formation filing or statute makes a general partner name public at formation.
General Partner Address Public At Formation: Whether the formation filing or statute makes a general partner address public at formation.
Limited Partner Name Public At Formation: Whether the formation filing or statute makes a limited partner name public at formation.
Limited Partner Address Public At Formation: Whether the formation filing or statute makes a limited partner address public at formation.
Annual Report Partner Disclosure: Partner-disclosure content located for an annual report, renewal, or ordinary limited-partnership recurrent filing.

Research scope

All 51 US jurisdictions (50 states plus DC). This matrix covers limited partnership charging-order remedy fields, partner-disclosure fields, and a transcluded limited liability limited partnership availability field.

METHOD class and URL rationale

METHOD class: MAGNET. Comparison matrix for limited-partnership charging-order remedy and partner-disclosure facts beside the LLC charging-order page. METHOD permits distinct MAGNET URLs for citation-earning comparison tables; this surface uses LP-native fields only.

LLLP transclusion

lp.lllp_available is read from pp-lp-reference by locator, pp-lp-reference#{state}.lp.lllp_available. This page is the authorized consumer at /asset-protection/limited-partnership-charging-order-protection-by-state/; it is not a second source of record for that field.

Exclusive remedy qualification

Exclusive remedy describes the procedural vehicle, not an absolute bar. The foreclosure column records whether the source chain classifies foreclosure as available, barred, or statute-silent for the limited partnership interest.

Disclaimers

Private Pierce is not a law firm.

Private Pierce does not provide legal advice.

This page is not a substitute for the advice of an attorney.

This matrix reports what each state's partnership statute says a judgment creditor may do; it is not advice about protecting your assets, and whether any structure would protect yours depends on your own facts and creditor timeline, including whether a transfer could later be set aside, which is a question for your own attorney.

A family limited partnership is an estate- and gift-tax structure as much as a creditor-remedy one, and the IRS has successfully argued that assets transferred into one remain in the transferor's taxable estate; nothing here describes how a partnership would be treated on your own facts, which is a question for your own attorney and tax advisor.

Frequently asked questions

What does this limited partnership charging-order matrix cover?

It covers LP-native charging-order fields: exclusive remedy, foreclosure availability, case-law status, debtor role, and statute citation. It also publishes the partner-disclosure fields from the limited partnership cell set.

Does exclusive remedy mean foreclosure is impossible?

No. Exclusive remedy describes the procedural vehicle, not an absolute bar. The matrix separately records foreclosure availability as available, barred, or statute-silent.

Why is LLLP availability included?

LLLP availability is relevant to limited partnership liability posture, but the source of record is the limited partnership reference matrix. This page reads that value by locator instead of reauthoring it.

Is this the same as the LLC charging-order matrix?

No. This matrix covers limited partnerships only. The LLC charging-order matrix remains a separate asset-protection surface with its own source schema.
