(a)   A partner's dissociation is wrongful only if:

          (i) It is in breach of an express provision of the
partnership agreement; or

          (ii) In the case of a partnership for a definite term
or particular undertaking, before the expiration of the term or
the completion of the undertaking:

               (A) The partner withdraws by express will,
unless the withdrawal follows the dissociation of another
partner and results in a right to dissolve the partnership under
W.S. 17-21-801(a)(ii)(A);

               (B) The partner is expelled by judicial decree
under W.S. 17-21-601; or

               (C) In case of a partner who is not an
individual, trust other than a business trust or estate, the
partner is expelled or otherwise dissociated because it
willfully dissolved or terminated.

     (b) A partner who wrongfully dissociates is liable to the
partnership and to the other partners for damages caused by the
dissociation. That liability is in addition to any other
liability of the partner to the partnership or to the other
partners.
