Deen, Presiding Judge,
concurring in part and dissenting in part.
I respectfully concur as to Divisions 1 and 3, but dissent as to Division 2.
While a partner does not have a personal right of action for wrongs done to the partnership, 59A AmJur2d, Partnership, § 701, see also OCGA § 9-11-17 (Parties Plaintiff and Defendant), a partner does have a cause of action for personal wrongs done to him. In his pleadings Johnny Goss alleges certain personal wrongs were done to him. Accordingly, the trial court erred in dismissing Johnny Goss’ claims.
