Title: [Research] Map US States that have adopted the Uniform Unincorporated Nonprofit Association Act (UUNAA)

📝 Description

The legal strength of a UNA varies by jurisdiction. We need a clear reference table for developers to know if their home state has formal statutes supporting this structure.

🎯 Goal

Research and create a Markdown table in docs/jurisdiction-matrix.md listing which US states have adopted the 1996 or 2008 versions of the UUNAA.

✅ Requirements

  • Identify the state name and the specific statute code (e.g., "Texas: Business Organizations Code, Title 6, Chapter 252").
  • Note if the state explicitly allows for "Entity Status" (the ability to own property or be sued).
  • Source the information from official legislative sites or the Uniform Law Commission.
