6 Pertinax was formed as a California general partnership in January 1978. Pertinax keeps its books and records and reports its income using the accrual method of accounting and a calendar year. At the time of filing of Pertinax's petition, its principal place of business was at the El Centro property. From the time of its formation through 1987, Pertinax always had three general partners that shared equally in income and made equal capital contributions, and those partners are Edco, Alondra, and UCIC. All three petitioners--Alondra, Edco, and Pertinax--as well as UCIC and UCII, are controlled by Mr. Munro and his family. Mr. Munro's daughter Ms. Ross is the sole shareholder of Alondra. Mr. Munro is the sole shareholder of Edco and UCII. Thus, members of Mr. Munro's family directly or indirectly own all of Pertinax's partners. Pertinax manages Alondra, Edco, and UCIC, and Mr. Munro controls Pertinax's policies. Business Background Alondra and UCIC are insulation contractors, engaged primarily in the sale and installation of insulation material in buildings. Edco is engaged in leasing automobiles and trucks. Pertinax provides marketing, management, and administrative services to its partners. 4(...continued) bankruptcy.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Next
