Nigel, US law on unincorporated bodies is very different from UK law. J.

OK.. this is interesting.
It has the limited liability you previously talked about, agreed. I've read the section.
But if it has legal personality, it is then a body corporate, and is no longer "unincorporated", surely?
I'd like you, please, to point me to the section in the statute that states these kind of associations have legal personality, and construe it for me, please, since I'm obvious being dim. (It's quite possible we have different understandings of the term "legal personality" here.)

Nigel,
Disagree in part. A California UA does have legal personality and does have limited liability.

Well, I've looked at the sections of California Law that we have been referred to.
I see nothin in the California law that contradicts what I wrote below, with the single exception that, as previously noted, California statute adds the gloss of a limited version of limited liability to the common-law concept of unincorporated associations.
Do you not agree that the reality is that a California UA does NOT have legal personality but DOES have a form of limited liability granted by statute?
