2. Leonard Sumter, Sr., entered into a general partnership agreement with his son, Michael T. Sumter, to conduct a plumbing business in Shreveport, Louisiana, under the name Sumter Plumbing Company. The father, on behalf of the general partnership, executed a credit application with Thermal Supply of Louisiana, Inc., for an open account to purchase supplies on credit. For the next four years, the Sumters purchased plumbing supplies from Thermal on credit and paid their bills without fail. Both partners and one employee signed for supplies at Thermal. Subsequently, the partnership was dissolved, and all outstanding debts to Thermal were paid in full. The Sumters did not, however, notify Thermal that the partnership had been dissolved.

A year later, the son decided to reenter the plumbing business. He used the name previously used by the former partnership, listed the same post office address for billing purposes, and hired the employee of the former partnership who signed for supplies at Thermal. The father decided not to become involved in this venture. The son began purchasing supplies on credit from Thermal on the open credit account of the former partnership. Thermal was not informed that the son was opening a new business. When the son defaulted on payments to Thermal, it sued the original partnership to recover the debt. Is the father liable for his sons debts? [Thermal Supply of Louisiana, Inc. vs. Sumter, 452 So. 2d 312, Web 1984 La. App. Lexis 8975 (Court of Appeals of Louisiana)]
