"Legal person" refers to an organization that has the capacity for civil rights and civil conduct, enjoys civil rights and undertakes civil obligations independently according to law. It is clear here that a legal person is an organization, not an individual.
A legal person (should be the legal representative) is generally not liable for the debts of the company, because a limited liability company has an independent legal personality, and it bears external liabilities with the company's assets, that is, limited liability.
The legal person of a limited company is closely related to the responsibilities of shareholders, who need to be responsible for the legal person of a limited company. At the same time, the relevant debts arising from the operation of the legal person are also borne by the legal person itself, and shareholders cannot be required to bear them personally. The legal responsibility of the company must be analyzed in detail according to the actual situation. Although shareholders are responsible for the legal person of a limited company, there is a difference between legal person status and shareholder status.
Civil liability refers to the civil liability that citizens and legal persons should bear if they violate the contract or fail to perform other obligations. Under normal circumstances, the duty behavior of the legal representative is the behavior of an enterprise as a legal person, so the civil liability arising therefrom shall be borne by the enterprise/company. The general legal representative does not bear civil liability directly to the third party, but only to the enterprise/company due to its own fault. However, because the unit may be subject to double sanctions for violating the law, in addition to the unit responsibility of the legal person, the legal representative, as the person in charge, should also bear personal legal responsibility.
: Does the company as a legal person bear the responsibility as a partner?
Take responsibility. As a partner, a company as a legal person shall bear unlimited liability for partnership debts with all its property. He is not only responsible for the capital contribution of his partnership, but also for all the company property he owns, but this does not affect the company's debt repayment responsibility.
Legal basis: Article 60 of the Civil Code? A legal person shall bear civil liability. A legal person shall bear civil liability independently with all its property.
Article 62? Legal representative's duty tort liability If the legal representative causes damage to others when performing his duties, the legal person shall bear civil liability. After a legal person bears civil liability, it may claim compensation from the legal representative at fault in accordance with the law or the articles of association of the legal person.
