German term or phrase: in seiner Person
I know I know it, but I guess I'm still feeling the after effects of last week...

My sentence reads:

Die Zwangseinziehung von Gesellschaftsanteilen ist möglich "...wenn ein Gesellschafter seine Gesellschafterpflichten grob verletzt oder in seiner Person ein anderer wichtiger Grund vorliegt".

Thanks!

in his person
Explanation:
This is quite standard in English law. I have researched this in the past. Sorry I am now rushing out the door. Perhaps you can Google it: "in * person", where * = one word. This might confirm me!

of which he or she is the cause


Explanation:
In other words a person can be forced to surrender his or her equity for a reason other than his or her failure to fulfill his or her obligations toward the firm. For example, if he or she has commited a crime that could tarnish the firm's image.

Surely there is an appropriate legal term that addresses such issues.
