✍️ Sample GA BAR Questions & Answers

1. Under the Georgia LLC Act, what is the effect of a manager's unauthorized act that purports to bind a manager-managed LLC?
✓ The act binds the LLC if the third party had no knowledge of the lack of authority

A manager's unauthorized act can still bind the LLC under apparent authority principles if the third party reasonably believed the manager had authority and lacked knowledge of the restriction.

2. A life tenant who allows the property to deteriorate beyond normal wear and tear may be liable for which doctrine?
✓ Waste

The waste doctrine prohibits life tenants from acts (voluntary) or omissions (permissive) that permanently diminish the property's value to the remainderman.

3. A purchase money mortgage (PMM) given to the seller to finance the purchase of real property generally takes priority over:
✓ Judgment liens that attached before the conveyance

A purchase money mortgage enjoys superpriority over judgment liens that attached to the property simultaneously with the buyer acquiring title.

4. In Georgia, what standard applies when determining if a defendant breached their duty of care?
✓ The reasonable person standard — what a prudent person would do under similar circumstances

The reasonable person standard is an objective test measuring the defendant's conduct against what a hypothetical prudent person would do in the same situation.

5. Under Georgia corporate law, what is the primary purpose of a shareholders' preemptive right?
✓ To allow existing shareholders to maintain their proportionate ownership by purchasing new shares before they are offered to outsiders

Preemptive rights give existing shareholders the opportunity to purchase new share issuances proportionally to preserve their ownership percentage.

6. What is joint and several liability?
✓ Each defendant can be held liable for the entire amount of damages regardless of their individual fault percentage

Under joint and several liability, each defendant is independently responsible for the full amount of damages, allowing the plaintiff to collect the entire judgment from any one defendant.
