Partners in a business owe a fiduciary duty of utmost good faith to one another. This duty is stated in a Georgia statute and is not discretionary to the partners. O.C.G.A. Section 23-2-58.
One partner cannot dissolve a partnership in order to take the business and partnership investments. He is required to act in a manner for the good of his partner as well as for the good of the partnership itself. Jordan v. Moses, Case No. S11G1772 (May 7, 2012, Ga. Supreme Court).
