TRADING PARTNERSHIPS ACT 1841 - SECT 1

No association or copartnership of contract entered into by any of them, to be illegal or void by reason only of spiritual persons being members thereof.

1.] No such association or copartnership already formed, or which may be
hereafter formed, nor any contract either as between the members, partners, or
shareholders composing such association or copartnership for the purposes
thereof, or as between such association or copartnership and other persons,
heretofore entered into or which shall be entered into by any such association
or copartnership already formed or hereafter to be formed, shall be deemed or
taken to be illegal or void, or to occasion any forfeiture whatsoever, by
reason only of any such spiritual person as aforesaid being or having been a
member, partner, or shareholder of or otherwise interested in the same; but
all such associations and copartnerships shall have the same validity, and all
such contracts shall and may be enforced in the same manner, to all intents
and purposes, as if no such spiritual person had been or was a member,
partner, or shareholder of or interested in such association or copartnership:
Provided always, that it shall not be lawful for any spiritual person holding
any cathedral preferment, benefice, curacy, or lectureship, or who shall be
licensed or allowed to perform the duties of any ecclesiastical office, to act
as a director or managing partner, or to carry on such trade or dealing as
aforesaid in person.
