By the judgment debtor;
With property other than partnership property, by one or more of the other partners; or
With partnership property, by one or more of the other partners with the consent of all of the partners whose interests are not so charged.
This chapter shall not deprive a partner of a right under exemption laws with respect to the partner’s interest in the partnership.
This section provides the exclusive remedy by which a judgment creditor of a partner or partner’s transferee may satisfy a judgment out of the judgment debtor’s transferable interest in the partnership.
