Revised Uniform Partnership Act
The NCCUSL's first revision of UPA was promulgated in 1992 and amended in 1993 and 1994. The 1994 revision was often referred to as the Revised Uniform Partnership Act (RUPA). Confusion arose when the 1996 and 1997 versions were also called RUPA. Because of this confusion, the NCCUSL now officially refers to each UPA version as "Uniform Partnership Act (year)," where "year" is replaced by the actual year that NCCUSL approved it. Many people still use the term "RUPA" to mean any version from 1994 forward. Thus, "RUPA" may actually imply any version of UPA except the 1914 version.
