61-2-207. Liability for false statement.
(a) If any certificate of limited partnership or certificate of amendment or cancellation contains a materially false statement, one who suffers loss by reasonable reliance on the statement may recover damages for the loss from:
(1) Any general partner who executes the certificate and knew or should have known the statement to be false in any material respect at the time the certificate was executed; and
(2) Any general partner who thereafter knows that any arrangement or other fact described in the certificate is false in any material respect or has changed, making the statement false in any material respect, if that general partner had sufficient time to amend or cancel the certificate, or to file a petition for its amendment or cancellation, before the statement was reasonably relied upon.
(b) No general partner shall have any liability for failing to cause the amendment or cancellation of a certificate to be filed or failing to file a petition for its amendment or cancellation pursuant to subsection (a) if the certificate of amendment, certificate of cancellation or petition is filed within ninety (90) days of when that general partner knew or should have known that the statement in the certificate was false in any material respect.
