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

  • (i)the partner's rights under Sections 22, 24, or 25 of this act;
  • (ii)the partner's right on dissociation to have the partner's interest in the partnership purchased pursuant to Section 35 of this act or enforce any other right under Article 6 or 7 of this act; or
  • (iii)the partner's right to compel a dissolution and winding up of the partnership business under Section 40 of this act or enforce any other right under Article 8 of this act; or

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