Wait, why would they freeze it? Isn’t the partnership still valid?

Distributing assets seems risky without a new partnership agreement in place; I think the brokerage would want to avoid any legal issues.

I feel like freezing the account makes sense until they provide a death certificate and a new agreement, but I can't recall if that's the standard procedure.

I think we practiced a similar question where the death of a partner didn't terminate the partnership, so maybe no special action is needed?

I remember discussing how a partnership can be affected by the death of a partner, but I'm not sure if it automatically requires freezing the account.

Okay, I think I understand the steps here. I'll need to create the extension in the AOT and then add it to the demo Extensions model.
