1. dissolved LLC can still be sued (Usually this is pointless)
2. members can defend if so desire and to the extent they received the
LLC's property interests at dissolution, they can crosscomplain.

Can a cancelled LLC (1) defend the lawsuit and (2) file a counter suit in its name? How about in the name of a principal member?
I would appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thank you.

I have the classic equipment lease case with an LLC with the accompanying 3 personal guarantys. The LLC was cancelled (not sure of the legal
difference between "dissolved" and "cancelled' but the Secretary of State website
says "cancelled"). LLC and 3 guarantors are sued. We want to countersuefor UBP (17200 Unfair Business Practices) but my concern is whether the
cancelled LLC can legally sue anyone. I have found conflictinf information on
this. I suppose I could sue in just the name of the guarantors only, butour main facts are that the cancelled company was duped into signing the
lease, so I'd want to be able to present that. I don't think the guarantors
would have standing to raise the fraud in the inducement issue with respect to
the LLC.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
