Deborah Harvey vs. Felipa Covington, d/b/a Choice Corporate Training Int'l.

This appeal arises from a business dispute between the parties. Businesswoman and Investor signed letter of intent to create limited liability company. Business then began operation. Thereafter, several operational disputes arose between the parties, as well as disputes over Businesswoman's use of Business funds. The trial court determined that Businesswoman had defrauded Investor of invested funds and awarded Investor those funds. Investor was also awarded back pay promised by Businesswoman through Business. We find that a partnership agreement existed between the parties and reverse the trial court's judgment. The case is remanded for rescission of the partnership on the basis that it was created under fraudulent circumstances. The trial court's decision to deny attorney's fees requested by Businesswoman is affirmed.
