We present a derivation of the equation of motion for a test-particle in the framework of the nonsymmetric gravitational theory. Three possible couplings of the test-particle to the non-symmetric gravitational field are explored. The equation of motion is found to be similar in form to the standard geodesic equation of general relativity, but with an extra antisymmetric force term present. The equation of motion is studied for the case of a static, spherically symmetric source, where the extra force term is found to take the form of a Yukawa force.
