G & S Investments V. Belman

This case involves a partnership dispute arising out of the misconduct and subsequent death of Thomas N. Nordale. There are two principal issues in this case: whether the surviving general partner, G & S Investments, is entitled to continue the partnership after the death of Nordale, and how the value of Nordale's interest in partnership property is to be computed. The trial court, after making findings of fact and conclusions of law, entered judgment in favor of G & S Investments, finding that it had the right to continue the partnership and that the estate was owed $4,867.57. However, the trial court, without stating any reasons, failed to award G & S Investments the attorney's fees it requested pursuant to A.R.S. § 12-341.01. This failure is the subject of the cross-appeal filed by G & S Investments.
