1Opinion of the Court
Sears, Presiding Justice.
We granted certiorari to review Division 2 of the Court of Appeals’s decision in Nolan Road West, Ltd. v. PNC Realty Holding Corp. More specifically, we are concerned with whether the Court of Appeals correctly ruled that venue in a suit against a limited partnership is proper in a county to which the limited partnership’s sole connection is the residence of one of its limited partners. For the reasons that follow, we conclude that, under the circumstances of this case, venue is not proper in such a county.
