Title 9, Chapter 2, Section 25
( 9-2-25)
(a) Actions may be maintained against and in the name of any
unincorporated organization or association for any cause of action
for or upon which the plaintiff therein may maintain such an action
against the members of the organization or association. (b) Service of process in the action against the organization or
association shall be had by service upon any officer or official
member of such organization or association, or upon any officer or
official member of any branch or local of the organization or
association, provided that any such organization or association may
file with the Secretary of State a designated officer or agent upon
whom service shall be had and his residence address within the
state. If the designation is made and filed, service of process
shall be had only on the officer or agent designated, if he can be
found within the state. (c) The organization or association shall be suable in any cause of
action. The action may be maintained in any county where the
organization or association does business or has in existence a
branch or local organization. (d) Where a judgment in such actions is rendered in favor of the
plaintiff against the organizations or associations, the property of
the organization or association shall be liable to the satisfaction
of the judgment. No such judgment shall be enforced against the
individual property of any member of an unincorporated association,
unless the member has personally participated in the transaction for
which the action was instituted and has been served with process as
provided by law. |
