Texas Judicial Branch

Reed v. Rook TX, 2025 Tex. Bus. 23 (3d Div.)

Andrews, J. | June 18, 2025

On a motion to remand, the Court holds that this action concerns a limited partnership’s “governance, governing documents, or internal affairs,” and thus falls within the Court’s jurisdiction under Section 25A.004(b)(2) of the Government Code, because it concerns when the partnership was formed, whether it was formed for improper purposes, and whether the plaintiff can recover partnership proceeds from its partners and others. In doing so, the Court rejects the movant’s argument that Section 25A.004(b)(2) applies only if an organization’s governance, governing documents, or internal affairs are the predominant focus of the case.
