Is it permissible for one of the partners to remove three partners from a company and establish a new company with the same name, along with the fourth partner and two new partners, knowing that they received their full rights and more, and in the event of their unwillingness to withdraw?

Any partner may dissolve the partnership contract whenever they wish. The partnership remains valid for the one who did not dissolve it. The commercial name of the shop or project is considered a financial right of the owner, and he has the right to dispose of it by sale or gift, and to prevent others from imitating it or infringing upon it. If the two brothers separate and both request to retain the name, they must pay a financial compensation equal to the value of the proportion of the moral right to the commercial name.
