Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the general partner of the bankrupt limited partnership had standing to appeal the dismissal order in her own name or on behalf of the partnership.
Decisione estratta
No. Bankruptcy dissolved the partnership and extinguished the general partner's authority to represent it, and she was not otherwise entitled to appeal as a third party.
Motivazione estratta
Only parties, ancillary parties, and successors may appeal. The general partner could previously represent the partnership, but that authority ended upon bankruptcy and she could not challenge the order as a representative of the party. The dismissal order did not itself invade her own rights in a way that would give her independent standing.
