And can one person in the implicit 'partnership' claim money from the other for earning money under the implied 'partnership' name?
My friend was in a band with two other members. There was no partnership agreement written up. They performed together and earned money under the band name. One member wasn't pulling their weight so they kicked them out and replaced them. They have continued to perform under same band name with a new member and earn money. Ex-member has gone to solicitors to claim for either a third of all profits from 'partnership' or force them to change their band name. Their bandname is fairly important to them as it's established and gets them work.
Can ex-member claim for money in a partnership where there is no written agreement between the 'partnership' members? If so, could my friend set up a ltd company as the bandname and operate under that so the 'partnership' is effectively dissolved?
