(a)  A partnership may maintain an action against a partner for a breach of the partnership agreement, or for the violation of a duty to the partnership, causing harm to the partnership.

(b)  A partner may maintain an action against the partnership or another partner for legal or equitable relief, with or without an accounting as to partnership business, to:

          (1)  Enforce the partner's rights under the partnership agreement;

          (2)  Enforce the partner's rights under this act, including:

              (i)  The partner's rights under Sections 79-13-401, 79-13-403, or 79-13-404;

              (ii)  The partner's right on dissociation to have the partner's interest in the partnership purchased pursuant to Section 79-13-701 or enforce any other right under Article 6 or 7; or

              (iii)  The partner's right to compel a dissolution and winding up of the partnership business under or enforce any other right under Article 8; or

          (3)  Enforce the rights and otherwise protect the interests of the partner, including rights and interests arising independently of the partnership relationship.
