OPINION
DAVID A. SCHOLL, Bankruptcy Judge. A. INTRODUCTION
We herein consider, at some length, whether a general partner, vis-a-vis his other partners, “acts in a fiduciary capacity” within the meaning of those terms in 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code under Pennsylvania law. We answer the question in the negative, although we do conclude that the debt in issue may be, in part, non-dischargeable on the grounds of embezzlement, under a different aspect of § 523(a)(4), or conversion pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(6).
