In answering a question certified to it from the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court held that the trial court’s jury instruction was a correct statement of law.10 *694Id., 670. We find the reasoning of the Kansallis Finance Ltd. court to be persuasive, especially in light of the fact that Massachusetts has also adopted the Uniform Partnership Act and has an identical statute to the one at issue here.11 Furthermore, its statutes also provide that the law of agency controls the interpretation of its partnership act. See Massachusetts Uniform Partnership Act, § 4 (3).
