How to deal with the misappropriation of public funds by partners?

If the legal representative of the partnership company misappropriates public funds privately, it is an illegal and criminal act, and if it constitutes a crime, criminal responsibility may be investigated according to the crime of misappropriating funds.

The punishment for partners to misappropriate partnership funds is to bring a lawsuit to the court to demand the return of misappropriated funds or compensate the corresponding losses. Misappropriation of partners' funds is a bad behavior, which is generally recognized as a civil dispute and handled according to it. Misappropriation of partnership property can first require return and compensation for losses, and serious cases can also be investigated for criminal responsibility.

A contract is an agreement between civil subjects to establish, change and terminate a civil legal relationship. Contract is an objective requirement to adapt to the private ownership of commodity economy and a legal form of commodity exchange. After commodity production, people have gradually formed many habits and rituals about exchange in the long-term exchange practice for the sake of safety and credibility. These habits and rituals of commodity exchange have gradually become the general rules for adjusting commodity exchange. With the establishment of private ownership and the emergence of the state, in order to maintain private ownership and normal economic order, the ruling class stipulated the habits and rules conducive to its commodity exchange in legal form, and ensured its implementation with the coercive power of the state. So the commodity exchange contract law came into being. In ancient Rome, people paid attention to contracts. Signing a contract must go through the prescribed channels before it has legal effect. If any details of the terms and actions of the contract ceremony are omitted, the whole contract will be invalid.
