Business, Legal & Accounting Glossary
n. a lawsuit which one co-owner of real property can file to get a court order requiring the sale of the property and division of the profits, or division of the land between the co-owners, which is often a practical impossibility. Normally, a partition order provides for an appraisal of the total property, which sets the price for one of the parties to buy out the other’s half. Partition cases are common when co-owners differ on whether to sell, keep or divide the property.
