Abstract
Structural changes in a company. Partial division: the transfer of contracts to the beneficiary company determines its legal standing as defendant in nullity actions. The joint and several liability of the divided company and the beneficiary company set up in article 80 of Act 3/2009 on Structural Changes in Corporations, does not confer the divided company passive legal standing in nullity actions. However, the divided company could be sued together with the beneficiary with the only aim of both being given the order for restitution derived from the nullity action.
