(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 K.S.A. 56a-401, 56a-403 or 56a-404;

(ii) the partner's right on dissociation to have the partner's interest in the partnership purchased pursuant to K.S.A. 56a-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 K.S.A. 56a-801 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.
